Shortly
after 11:00 p.m. on Wednesday June 8th the Auburn Emergency
Communications Center received a report of a vehicle that had gone in the water
from the Eddy Pond boat ramp. The caller reported seeing the vehicle enter the
water from I-395.
Fire
and Police were dispatched to the scene and an initial search of the water showed there were
no victims. The District 7 Regional Dive Team was activated and conducted an
underwater secondary search of the area and assisted the towing company in
hooking the vehicle to remove it from the water. The vehicle was submerged approximately
150 feet off shore.
The
Auburn Police Department is investigating reports that the vehicle was reported
stolen. There were no injuries reported at the scene.
