FAYETTEVILLE, AR. – A TV station in Northwest Arkansas lost one of its live trucks in a river.
The KFSM News crew was getting ready for a live shot, Wednesday night, November 12, 2009, when the van rolled into the White River.
Station management says no one was hurt in the accident. The truck was equipped with a satellite dish, which allows crews to operate from several locations. The vehicle was also equipped with a news camera, batteries, and lighting equipment. The damage estimate is expected to be around $250,000.
Investigators are still trying to determine how the truck ended up in the water.
