School bus, stolen vehicles discovered submerged in B.C. river: RCMP

Police dive team went searching for 1 vehicle in Fraser River, but found several more

An RCMP dive team discovered more than they expected to when they went wading into the Fraser River in search of a stolen vehicle earlier this month.

Swimming through the waters next to the Port Mann Bridge in Coquitlam on April 6, the divers found not only the vehicle they were after, but two others and a school bus, too.

Corp. Alexa Hodgins said the three additional vehicles appear to have been sunken in the river for some time, and that at least one of them was also stolen.
