INDIANAPOLIS — Police are looking for a suspect after they allegedly stole a car with a child inside from an animal hospital Tuesday afternoon in Indianapolis.
A woman left a child inside a blue Hyundai Accent still running around 3:30 p.m. and went inside to All Pet Care, near West Washington Street and Holt Road, when a man allegedly stole the car with the child still inside, according to the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department.
