Ford Mustang Found in San Diego Bay with Open Alcohol Cans
Strange Discoveries
A Ford Mustang was recently pulled from San Diego Bay, and it was found to contain several open cans of alcohol. The presence of tire tracks leading to the water suggests that the car had quite a wild ride before ending up in the bay. The seawater in Mission Bay could lead to a quick and rusty demise for the Mustang after its aquatic adventure.
A Disturbing Trend?
This incident comes just days after a similar discovery in Palm Beach County, Florida, where a Ford Mustang was found abandoned upside down in a canal. These incidents raise questions about whether Mustangs have developed a strange affinity for bodies of water.
Owners’ Surprising Arrival
Local authorities were alerted to the Mustang in San Diego Bay early in the morning. Lifeguards quickly responded to ensure no one was inside the vehicle before the police authorized its removal. Interestingly, the owners of the Mustang arrived at the scene while the police were waiting for a tow truck. When questioned, they claimed to have no knowledge of how their car ended up in the bay or how they conveniently knew where to find it.
Possible Damage and Insurance Implications
Despite the water submersion, the Ford Mustang does not appear to have suffered major bodywork damage, except for a large dent in the roof. The presence of an open passenger side window and a handicap license plate raises further questions about the circumstances surrounding the incident. However, the exposure to Mission Bay’s seawater cocktail poses a significant risk of rust damage. If the car was insured at the time of the crash, it may be declared a total loss.

Conclusion
The discovery of a Ford Mustang in San Diego Bay with open alcohol cans raises questions about the circumstances leading to its watery plunge. The owners’ surprising arrival and lack of knowledge about the incident add to the mystery. The potential damage caused by the seawater and the implications for insurance coverage make this a unique and unfortunate situation for the Mustang.
