Jesse Reed has been identified as the Nashville firefighter missing after his vehicle plunged into the Tennessee River in Humphreys County, TN.
The Nashville Fire Department said search efforts for Reed are ongoing as of Wednesday morning.
Humphreys County Deputy Rob Edwards said a vehicle went into the Tennessee River in Waverly, Tenn. early Tuesday morning. The vehicle has since been recovered, but the person believed to be inside the vehicle has not been found. Edwards said there was a second person involved, but that person got out of the vehicle when it went into the water. That person confirmed to officers that there was another person still inside the vehicle when it went into the river. source
Edwards said the vehicle was submerged in at least 10 feet of water. It is possible, but unlikely, that the person could have made it out of the vehicle and out of the water.
Divers are expected to be back on the scene on today.
