Stolen car pulled from Cape Coral canal

Published: Updated:

CAPE CORAL, Fla. — A car was discovered at the bottom of a canal Thursday morning off Kismet Parkway near Northwest Ninth Place.

The car was stolen, according to the Cape Coral Police Department, and no injuries were reported. A scuba diver from the Cape Coral Fire Department went in to make sure there weren’t any bodies, witness Mark Frost said.

WINK News Reporter Adam Wright was live via Facebook as crews used a tow truck to pull out the car out of the water, a process that took nearly an hour:

No arrests have been made in the case.

Nearby resident Deno Berlongieri said he didn’t hear any noise that would indicate a car plunging into the water.
