Truck Reported Stolen in 2004 “Fished” Out of Lake Monticello – Edited
October 21st, 2010 by Joe Burgess
Tuesday, a Nissan 4-wheel drive pick-up, which was reported as being stolen back in 2004, was pulled out of the Old HWY 13, Plantersville Road Access end of Lake Monticello.
With the recent lack of rain, the water level in Lake Monticello is much lower than usual, and allowed the top of the truck to be seen by someone fishing from their boat.
The truck was located in water estimated to be 9 feet deep, approximately 50 from the boat ramp.
The ongoing investigation is being done by the Drew County Sheriff’s Dept. The Arkansas Game & Fish Commission and the Fire Dept. Dive Team assisted Triple A Towing in the recovery of the Nissan from the lake.
Eric Chisom and Kyle Berryman of the Fire Dept. are shown in the lake, as the truck is being towed out.
