I drove home past this about an hour ago– they were pulling what looked like a black pickup track (possibly F-150) out of the river while I drove by, and there was a huge crowd.
To add more details I’m looking at photos my wife took and it is a dark green F350 super crew (4 door) with a grill guard.
Are you sure? I know a guy with a truck exactly like you described who works down there not far from the site. Saw him today, he didn’t say anything about losing his truck in the river…and I think that’s the sort of thing he’d mention if it happened to him.
