BOISE, Idaho — Twin Falls County deputies and a search and rescue team recovered a truck in a Twin Falls canal on Monday, Sept. 23, but the owner is still missing.
The truck was recovered from the Low Line Canal at Eastland Drive South. A news release said the location of the crashed truck was found by members of the Special Investigation Unit (SIU), Twin Falls Police and deputies with the Twin Falls County Sheriff's Office.
The SIU team had initially started to look for the truck after a missing persons report was filed for the driver, Marvin Orellana-Orozco. He was last seen in Twin Falls late on Friday, Sept. 20.
Authorities said the crash site was found by debris along the road and damage to the guard rail. Orellana-Orozco's white, Chevrolet utility truck was found submerged in the canal, but he was not found in the car.
The sheriff's office said the Twin Falls Canal Company has been notified, and alerts ditch riders to keep their eyes open.
The search continues for Orellana-Orozco.
