Terrier Puppies Stolen at Gunpoint - Caught on Security Camera (Yorkies)

Note to self: next time you have four Yorkshire Terrier puppies to sell, and list them for $2,500 a piece in the paper, expect that someone MIGHT try to rob you. That's what happened to a Los Angeles family earlier this week and it was all caught on the home's security camera. More from the AP:
Four purebred Yorkshire terriers stolen at gunpoint during a home invasion robbery more than a week ago were returned to their owners after a man turned himself in to police.
Three puppies, valued at $2,500 each, and a full-grown family pet named Tan-ja were reunited with their owners at the Wilshire Division police station Saturday night.
One puppy remained missing, police said.
Family members hugged and kissed the panting pups and left the police station with the dogs in their arms.
The animals were recovered after Ryan Betton, 19, of Los Angeles, surrendered to police Friday night, Detective Luis Corona said.
He was booked for investigation of residential robbery, police said.

Watch the raw video below from the security cam and have a laugh as a bungling robber chases after one of the puppies and can't seem to catch him:
