Planes are not always required to file flight plans, so there may be nothing to find.

@MichaelHampton you're correct and the FAA has a program called Block Aircraft Registration Request (BARR) whereby private aircraft owners or operators are able to have their aircraft data blocked from public display in ASDI, including those not accompanied by a Certified Security Concern. If it was at MSP, there will likely be a flight plan, but those are generally destroyed after 15 days or so. If law enforcement is involved, it might help; if not, it may be very difficult.

To request a flight plan, you would have to file a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request to the appropriate regional Federal Aviation Office. Since flight plans are filed regionally, the office managing Minnesota would be the FAA Central Service Center. You are able to initiate the request online for air traffic records.
