Newport News, Va. – Police have arrested a teen for grand larceny of an animal, according to police. Police are still searching for another suspect wanted for the same crime who remains at large, officials tell NewsChannel 3.

Aaron Scott Dosier, age 19, of the first block of Curtis Tignor Road was arrested at his home at about 7 p.m. on September 29, 2014. He is charged with one count each of grand larceny of an animal and conspiracy to commit a felony, police say.
The second suspect, Thomas Francis Lobianco III, of the 200 block of Saddler Drive in Newport News, remains at large and is wanted for one count each of grand larceny of an animal and conspiracy to commit a felony.
