Two days later, car that drove off VB pier still in the ocean

It’s been more than two days since a car drove off the end of a fishing pier at the Virginia Beach Oceanfront.

Video shared with News 3 from early Saturday showed the vehicle drive down the pier and pause briefly before going over the edge. Those filming the incident can be heard gasping.

The Virginia Beach Fishing Pier, a tourist destination, is located between 14th and 15th streets on the boardwalk.

On Sunday, a crew from Crofton Industries hired by Virginia Beach Police attempted to retrieve the vehicle from the ocean — which local fishermen estimated to be about 15 feet deep — but conditions were not favorable.

Police released a sonar image of the vehicle on Monday, saying that the car is on its roof at the end of the pier.
