The Hopkinsville Fire Department and the Hopkinsville Police Department are investigating after a truck was found partially submerged in Little River Friday morning.
It was located in an area downriver from the Hopkinsville Public Library around 9:15 a.m., and when the fire department arrived on scene, rope technicians immediately formulated a plan. They rigged a system that sent a firefighter to the truck, where they were able to confirm that the vehicle unoccupied.
The vehicle was removed from the river without incident by Jones Brothers Towing.
It’s unknown when exactly the vehicle entered the water, and the investigation is continuing.
