Pickup taken by tide in Coronado

Saturday April 29th in the afternoon a Toyota Hilux was taken by the tide in front of La Gaviota Resort in Coronado Panama.

Reports say the driver was attempting to launch a jetski when he lost control of the truck due to strong currents and a rising tide. Agents from Sinaproc arrived to rescue the man in the truck and remove the vehicle from the ocean. By the time they arrived the vehicle was completely totaled, but nobody was hurt.
