Using a sonar device and ‘100% luck’, Brody Loch spotted submerged car in river linked to missing person case

A fisher who recently went out on the Mississippi River in Minnesota ended up spotting a submerged car and evidently helped solve a nearly 60-year-old missing person case, according to authorities and local news reporting.

Brody Loch, the fisher at the center of the remarkable chain of events, told the Minneapolis news outlet WCCO that he called authorities after discovering the 1960s-era Buick in question with a sonar device on the weekend of 9 August.
