Spectators watch and take photos as a pickup gets pulled from Banks Lake July 4. A Kennewick man got the expensive car wash when his GMC truck rolled into Banks Lake at Coulee Playland. He backed his truck up to the boat launch to load up his jetski, and when he got out of the truck, the truck rolled into the water, about 50 feet from shore and 20 feet deep. A licensed diver volunteered to dive down and connect a tow chain to the truck to pull it out. The police report for the incident estimated the damage costs at $55,000.
