Police Recover Body, Car From River
TAMPA - Hope ran out Tuesday for the Johnson family when Tampa police pulled a submerged vehicle, with a body inside, from the Hillsborough River.
The victim is thought to be Freddie Lee Johnson, who has been missing since April 30.
The police department's dive team, acting on a tip, recovered the car from the Hillsborough River near Pow- hatan Avenue and River Shore Drive. The 1998 dark green Acura had been submerged for days, if not weeks, police Capt. Jill Ramsten said."
Also in the Times.
The Times print edition said this occured in Seminole Heights. it's not clear if this occurred at the edn of Henry on Seminole Heights side or on the opposite side of the river. One of those dead ends at the river on the Seminole Heights side is pretty scary. Some homeowner there has pads that I would be afraid to park on.

They pulled the car from the other side of the river but it originally went into the river at the end of Henry Ave. People that actually live at the end of Henry Ave. said it actually happened a couple of weeks ago. The neighbors that live on the river off of Henry had called the police to notify them that they were concerned that a car had gone into the river. Police looked for the car that night but could not find anything. If anyone knows more facts, please correct me if I have anything wrong in details. This is information I gathered from people who live off of Henry since I used to live down there.
