The Asheville Police Department (APD) is asking the community to help locate a stolen vehicle and missing puppy.

The vehicle is a silver 2008 Subaru Impreza with North Carolina license plate 26357114. The vehicle has a dent on the left back fender, "Mama" written in pink on the driver's side window, and "Live Laugh Love" on the front of the vehicle. The puppy is a 7 week old pitbull/blue heeler/australian shepherd mix. The puppy is wearing a blue harness.

At 6:00 p.m. on February 22 APD responded to a robbery at Westgate Shopping Center. A child and the puppy were in the Subaru Impreza when a man came up to the vehicle and told the child to get out of the car. The child got out of the car and the man stole the vehicle with the puppy inside. The child was not physically injured.
