Commercial van stolen overnight Wednesday

A white commercial van was stolen from the 1900 block of Greenwood Street on Wednesday night, police said.

The owner reported the van missing Thursday morning at approximately 9:30 a.m., police said. The van — a 1996 Ford — had a ladder rack on its roof and a sheet metal covering the back window, an employee told police.

It was unclear whether or not the van was locked, Polinski said.
