It happened in a work zone on Interstate 69 near 116th Street after an INDOT employee noticed the vehicle was missing around 10:15 a.m. The vehicle was left with the keys inside and unlocked.

Workers in the area said they saw a white man in his 30s with a brown sweatshirt driving the vehicle, but did not inform officials because they thought the man was an INDOT employee.

Indiana State Police troopers in Fort Wayne later found the vehicle abandoned. It is not yet clear if anything was taken from the vehicle.

There have not yet been any arrests in the investigation.

If you have any information on the incident, you are urged to call ISP at 317-899-8577.
