The Los Angeles Police Department has made an arrest in the theft of a French bulldog where its owner was seen in a viral video hanging on to the speeding getaway car.

LAPD’s Gang and Narcotics Division announced the arrest Saturday on X, the site formerly known as Twitter. The dog, Onyx, is still missing, authorities say. Local affiliate KTLA reported the suspect was identified as Sadie Slater, 21.

Cops say the incident occurred around 3:45 p.m. at a Whole Foods 800 block of South Grand Avenue. The owner, Ali Zacharias, was eating on the patio with her 1-year-old dog, Onyx, when a woman picked up the pooch and took off running. The victim ran after the suspect, who entered a white 4-door sedan. A man was in the driver’s seat of the sedan and Zacharias stood in front of the car in hopes that he wouldn’t take off. But the man drove forward with Zacharias hanging on as the car went upwards of 40 mph down the street.
