SALEM, Ore. (AP) - Divers have recovered a body from a vehicle that went into the Willamette River.
Lt. Chris Baldridge of the Marion County Sheriff's Office says a ferry boat operator spotted the vehicle Tuesday night near the Buena Vista Ferry ramp, and rescuers discovered what appeared to be a deceased, elderly person inside.
A dive team went to the river at daybreak Wednesday and recovered the body and a vehicle.
Baldridge says deputies are investigating the case as an accident.
