Car Found Submerged in Potomac River

A car was found completely submerged in the Potomac River near Poolesville, Maryland, Thursday morning.

The light-colored Hyundai appears to have gone into the water at the Edwards Ferry boat ramp on the 15200 block of Edwards Ferry Road, Montgomery County Fire and EMS spokesman Pete Piringer said on Twitter. 

Piringer said no one was found inside the car. A tow truck pulled the car from the water. 

The owner of the car didn't know it was gone and told News4's Megan McGrath it must have been stolen.
