YNARES-SANTIAGO, J.
The only requirement for a personal property to be the object of theft under the penal code is that it be capable of appropriation. It need not be capable of "asportation," which is defined as "carrying away."[7] Jurisprudence is settled that to "take" under the theft provision of the penal code does not require asportation or carrying away.[8]
