CYPRESS. Texas \u2013 Law enforcement say a man\u2019s body has been recovered from a submerged vehicle found inside a Cypress pond.<\/p>\n
Authorities with the Harris County Pct. 5 Constable\u2019s Office say they were called just before 4 p.m. to the 18500 block of W. Windhaven Terrace Trail after getting reports of a vehicle upside down in a retention pond.<\/p>\n
Responding deputies arrived to see wheels sticking out of the water. They determined there had been a crash earlier in the morning, during which the vehicle drove into the water.<\/p>\n
A Harris County Sheriff\u2019s Office dive team was then called out. They noticed tire tracks as well as damage to a nearby pier.<\/p>\n
After doing an initial search around the vehicle to see if anyone had been ejected in the crash, a heavy-duty wrecker was called. The wrecker was able to pull the vehicle toward the shore where it was then flipped upright. Authorities then discovered a man\u2019s body inside the vehicle.<\/p>\n
Authorities at the scene say they have abundant evidence that this was an accident. The vehicle appears to be a Honda Civic. Law enforcement is investigating whether speed, weather, or intoxication may have played a role in the crash.<\/p>\n
There is no indication anyone else was involved in the crash.<\/p>\n
