Surveillance tape show man's struggle to leave Dome.
Officials with the Metropolitan Sports Facilities Commission have released a surveillance video of the man who they say rode off with an expensive wheelchair Tuesday night. The chair belongs to a teenage boy who has a muscular disease.
Sam Dougherty, 17, had been at the Metrodome attending the Twins-White Sox game. He parked his electric wheelchair, valued at more than $15,000, in the stadium concourse. When he went to leave the game, the wheelchair was gone.
The surveillance video showed a man on a chair similar to Dougherty's leave the Metrodome in the seventh inning. The video shows the man struggling to get out of the building, until a Metrodome employee helps him.
Anybody with information is asked to call Minneapolis Police at 612-692-8477.
