Police said the dog's 21-year-old owner left him on a leash outside Green Corner Fish and Famers Market on the corner of Humbolt Street and Flushing Avenue.

When she left the store around 9 p.m., all that was left was the leash.

Police are now questioning a woman who contacted the owner and brought Theo back. So far, no charges have been filed.
