Emergency response after car spotted in Fenland river

A busy Fenland river road was partially blocked to traffic this morning (14) after a car was spotted in the water.

Police were called to the Twenty Foot Road opposite Greysmoor Drove just outside March along with other emergency services, after reports of a vehicle in the river.

However, once the emergency crews arrived it was established it was a vehicle that they were already aware of.

A Police spokesperson said: "Emergency crews checked the river to make sure there were no other vehicles in the water. And due to the vehicle being visible from the road today we have recovered the vehicle under Road Traffic Act powers."
