Chicago Community Raises $6K Reward For Blind Man’s Stolen Service Dog

News summary

Angel Santiago, a legally blind man from Chicago, has been desperately searching for his 14-year-old service dog, Bam Bam, who was stolen from his backyard in the Logan Square neighborhood on June 5. Bam Bam, a Dachshund mix, is not only Santiago's emotional support animal but also essential for helping him navigate daily life safely. Despite Santiago's efforts distributing flyers and walking several miles daily to raise awareness, the dog remains missing. The community, alongside organizations like PETA, have come together to aid in the search, raising the reward for Bam Bam's safe return to $6,000, including $5,000 from PETA and additional contributions from locals. Bam Bam is microchipped but was not wearing a collar when taken, and Santiago has refused offers for a replacement dog, emphasizing his desire to reunite with Bam Bam. Authorities urge anyone with information to contact the Chicago Police Department to help bring Bam Bam back to his owner.
