PORTLAND, Ore. — Most stolen cars, if ever located, are found within a week or two, according to Portland Police. So, when a Hazell Dell woman got the call nearly four months later to come to pick up her Nissan Pathfinder in North Portland, she was thrilled.
“We couldn't believe it. I looked over every day on Craigslist, Facebook Market, hoping someone has it or posted it for sale. I know it's an older car, but it really means a lot to me," said Alena Wikham.
Alena’s dad bought this Nissan Pathfinder in 1993. It became “hers” a few years later. Four hundred thousand miles later, it vanished from a Hazel Dell street on Dec. 4.
