"When the deputy arrived, they observed damage to fencing, and apple trees on the property. While investigating the scene, they found various automobile parts and tracks leading toward a deep farm pond.

The deputy was able to determine that a vehicle was submerged in the water. With assistance from Corinna Fire Department, the state police dive team, and a local towing service, a truck and its lone occupant were recovered. The preliminary investigation indicates the crash may have taken place, during the prior evening. The occupant was identified as a 50-year-old local man."
