Three people facing charges after a $750 tortoise was stolen from an East Saint John pet store.
Sgt. Glen Hayward of the City police tells CHSJ News three men ages 21, 22, and 23 were charged with theft and released. One of them also faces a charge for posessing marijuana.
Pets Unlimited Manager Joe Mullet says it's the second time the baby Greek tortoise has been stolen.
He tells us a former employee took "Herman" before Christmas and last night someone broke the lock on his cage taking him a second time.
Mullet says the store's staff is upset adding everyone is pretty attached to "Herman".
