Body found after car plunges into Brisbane River

The body of a man in his 60s has been found after a car plunged into the Brisbane River in the city’s western suburbs.

People reported seeing a blue sedan going into the river near Moggill Rd in Brisbane’s southwest at about 6.45pm on Monday.

An enormous search effort was launched near the Moggill ferry – including specialist police, water rescue and other agencies – with hours spent searching for the vehicle.

The car was pulled from the water about 11.20pm.

“Police divers confirmed a man in his 60s was inside the submerged vehicle just after midnight,” a police spokesman told NewsWire.

Police are not treating the incident as suspicious and a report will be prepared for the coroner.
