SPRINGFIELD -- Police have recovered a pair of wheelchairs taken from a residence in the city's Upper Hill neighborhood early Sunday morning.

"The wheelchairs were recovered and returned to the owner," Springfield Police Lt. Robert P. Moynihan said.

Moynihan said he was unsure of the condition of the chairs when they were returned, but they were recovered shortly after they were reported stolen.

No arrests have been made in connection with the case.

The mother of a disabled girl called police around 2:07 a.m. to report that two men had stolen her daughter's wheelchairs from their home at 456 Wilbraham Road.

It was unclear where the chairs had been stored prior to the theft, but the men were last seen with them around 1:50 a.m. as they headed north on Roosevelt Avenue, according to police reports.
