· Telemundo McAllen (KTLM)

A man took a kitten from the adoption area of a pet store in Maryland and then allegedly tried to use it to rob a nearby bank. According to authorities, officers arrived at the scene within minutes, and the kitten, named Magnolia, emerged unscathed after the incident. Security footage shows a man wearing a light shirt and a black hat entering the Pet Supplies Plus store on Baltimore Avenue in Beltsville. Seconds later, he was seen running out with a black and white kitten in his arms. Witnesses reported that he ran straight toward the PNC bank located in the same shopping center. Stephanie Stullich, from the Beltsville Community Cats rescue group, was nearby when she received a call from a very alarmed store employee around 10:30 a.m. They informed her that someone had used a key hanging nearby to open the cat adoption area and take Magnolia, who is three months old.
