Woman in CCTV appeal over alleged dog theft eliminated from enquiries

A woman pictured in a CCTV image we released earlier this week in connection with an alleged dog theft in Shirebrook has contacted us, and we have eliminated her from our enquiries.

A Chihuahua named Tiny had gone missing from her home on Swanwick Avenue in Shirebrook on Monday 9th August and we put out an appeal for information.

We have spoken to the woman in the image and we are satisfied that the dog she was seen with is her own and has been for some time.

Thank you to everyone who responded to our appeal.

Tiny is described as having black and tan with white paws. If you have any information that could help us to reunite her with her owner please contact us, quoting reference 21000471287.
