Officials are trying to track down whoever owns a wheelchair left in June in the lobby of the Wal-Mart near Vancouver Mall.

The Vancouver Police Department said officers were told of the wheelchair Wednesday and learned it had been left in store at 7809 Van Plaza Drive for around a week. Other than missing cushions, the chair appears to be in good shape, the department said.

The department asked that anyone with information about the chair’s possible owner, or who knows someone missing a wheelchair, to contact police Sgt. Patrick Johns at 360-487-7517.
