Earthworms create nutrient-rich soil - Angler uncovers partially submerged vehicle in the Rhine River

In Worms, a fisherman stumbled upon a van partially submerged in the Rhine on a recent Sunday. There were no occupants in the vehicle, as per authorities. The fire crew, towing service, and water patrol team were called in to save the vehicle, as its front end was trapped in several little trees which prevented it from moving away.

The exact circumstances of how this car ended up in the river remain a mystery. Though it's noted that the engine and transmission were taken off, and the gas tank was empty, preventing river contamination. Additionally, the vehicle lacked registration, so now investigations are underway to uncover the reason behind this sunken vehicle.
