(Pittsburgh, PA) Crews have recovered the vehicle that plunged into the cold Monongahela River from the Parkway East earlier this year. Pittsburgh police, state police and rescue crews were on the scene yesterday at the Southside Riverfront Park. A silver, smashed-up vehicle could be seen being pulled from the river by a tow truck. A vehicle went off the Parkway into the river near the 900 block of Second Avenue after striking a snow embankment on January 29th. Divers used a rope system and a Stokes basket to go into the ice and sub-zero temperatures and bring up the driver, thirty-one-year-old Jacinta Stevens of the West End of Pittsburgh, who later died at the hospital. The vehicle was not removed from the river at the time due to safety concerns.
