A Rochester family is looking for answers following the theft of a puppy they were planning to train to be an emotional support animal for their children.
According to the Rochester Police Department, the puppy, named Sprinkles, was in front of the home with one of the family s autistic sons. A vehicle pulled up to the location, and a woman approached, asking if she could pet the dog. The woman then took the dog back to the vehicle, which drove off.

Magen Atkins, the 30-year-old woman who was reported missing earlier this week, has been located and reunited with family, according to an email from the Rochester Police Department sent Thursday night.
Previously, Atkins was last seen leaving a hotel on Wood Lake Drive Southeast on Wednesday, May 12. That same day, some of her belongings were found in Indian Heights Park in Northwest Rochester.
There was concern because she usually has daily contact with family and those she is close with, and it’s been nearly a week since she’s communicated with them, RPD spokeswoman Amanda Grayson said in an email.
