A man, who stole a dog and a flat-screen TV from a woman on their first date, has now returned the loot back.
The woman, who met the man online, brought him home on Thursday and then got engaged in some work in another room. When she returned she found that the man, her Yorkshire Terrier named Violet worth 4,000 dollars and TV valued at 3,000 dollars had all disappeared. The looted goods were returned early Saturday morning, the New York Daily News reported.
