Officials Investigating Following Car Crash Into Lake Pontchartrain

Salvage crews say they have recovered a car sent to the bottom of Lake Pontchartrain during a three-vehicle accident over the weekend.

Crews brought the car up from the water yesterday after locating it using sonar.

State police say the car was involved in a crash with two other vehicles on the Twin Span and went over the guard rail into the lake.

The driver of the car was rescued by the St. Tammany Parish Sheriff's office marine division and taken to the hospital for treatment.
