hillsborough river car-go
TBHC65 years ago…
November 24, 1941 – Frank Lazzara leaves his car high and dry on the banks of the Hillsborough River near the 22nd St. trestle, only to return and find it completely submerged in the river. The police said that someone apparently pushed the car into the river, but there was nothing to indicate who did it or why. Lazzara left his car after his battery died, and called the police when he returned thinking it had been stolen. The car was removed from the river by a wrecker, and was said to be a total loss.
