Damario Lipsey, 30, has been charged with armed robbery in connection to stealing the dog. 

At about noon on Saturday, July 29, the victim was walking his dog near Greenfield Road and Pilgrim Street when Lipsey allegedly approached him with a gun and took his money and French bulldog.

Officials say Detroit police investigated the incident and arrested Lipsey on Monday, July 31, although the victim says the dog hasn't been returned.
