A Washington D.C. local had a strange encounter when walking through Rock Creek Park. Perhaps expecting to see a duck or a dog in the water, the resident spotted a light blue SUV.

At first, people were quite unsure how the vehicle actually managed to get this deep into the water, with some suggesting that it may have tried to cross a ford, something which was not too uncommon in the park 60 years ago. If the driver was older and confused, it would have made sense that this could have happened.

However, one eagle-eyed citizen is believed to have solved the mystery of how the car actually ended up in the creek. It seems as though they may have missed a turning and accidentally driven down the slope and into the creek. This area has been sealed off with yellow police tape, so it is the most logical explanation.
