Police search and rescue divers have been busy since just after 11:00 this morning (January 13), recovering bodies from the vehicle.

While it is too early to say what happened, it looks like the vehicle lost control during a heavy thunderstorm, crashing over a crash barrier and ending up in the stream. The car matches the description of the missing car belonging to the family.
