Atchison Police Chief Mike Wilson tells MSC News it happened Thursday, when the relative noticed the vehicle missing.
Police were notified, and Wilson says the vehicle was soon located.
“We did investigate a stolen vehicle report on Thursday afternoon,” Wilson said. “It involved a 2001 Honda Accord that was taken from the 1000 block of South Sixth Street. It was taken from a family member by a 15-year-old male. We did recover the vehicle in the downtown area on Thursday afternoon.”
