ST. LOUIS PARK, Minn. – Police in St. Louis Park Friday evening found an accessible van that was stolen after asking for the public's help earlier this week.

The van – a light blue 2004 Honda Odyssey, with Wisconsin plates – was stolen from an apartment building's secured underground garage, located on the 1400 block of Hampshire Avenue South.

The vehicle belongs to 27-year-old Alex Mitchell, according to his roommate, who reached out to WCCO to spread the word.

"This is a huge issue for [Mitchell] because the van is accessible and had a bunch of the equipment he uses to be independent," said roommate Adam Crotteau.  

Crotteau says the equipment inside the van alone is worth more than $7,000. The equipment was missing from the van when located by police.

A GoFundMe has been set up to help cover the cost of damages, already raising over $8,000 in just a day.
