Two men have been arrested after allegedly stealing a baby Jesus from a nativity scene in Fort Worth a week before Christmas. 

Fox 4 of Dallas reported that the two men, Juan Meave, 39, and Martin Worden, 33, were arrested early last week by Forth Worth Police Department and charged with theft of property between $100 and $750.

Surveillance video shows that a man ran up to the Sundance Square nativity scene before taking the doll and fleeing in a vehicle in the early morning hours of Dec. 17. 

Following the theft, authorities stated that the suspects were identified and the baby doll was returned to the scene.
