A Yorkie that was snatched from the front porch of a Woodside home earlier this month has been returned to its owner and the alleged thief has been arrested.

Jonathan Coronado, 30, was arrested Tuesday on grand larceny charges for allegedly stealing a Yorkshire Terrier from the front porch of a woman’s home in the vicinity of 50th Avenue and 66th Street last week.

Coronado, who lives on 63rd Street in Maspeth, allegedly took the dog, named Jeter, from the porch while the woman was inside at around 4:30 p.m. June 5.

Police released images of Coronado riding his bike on June 7 via social media. He was arrested at the 108 Precinct stationhouse in Long Island City on Tuesday evening.
