A stolen ATV belonging to the City of Salina was recovered the next day in another part of town.

Salina Police Captain Paul Forrester reported this morning that sometime between 5 p.m. Tuesday and 7 a.m. Wednesday, someone broke into a maintenance shed at Bill Burke Park and stole a green Polaris Sportsman 400 four-wheeler and dirt puller.

A city employee told police that he had locked the shed prior to leaving on Tuesday. Total loss was estimated at $1,700.

The ATV was later found in the roadway in the 3200 block of E. North Street, Forrester explained. It was not damaged.
