Nope.
On Tuesday morning I saw a special sea-floor surveying vessel slowly and methodically covering the area off the dock and since it was the day after the typhoon passed through and the bay was all muddy I thought they were just confirming silting hadn't made the area too shallow for ships to approach. Then I saw a detective and a few CSI guys examining the low curbs by the water's edge, looking for marks.
On Friday I saw they had cordoned off a small section of the dock and there were divers working in the area.
Then today, Saturday, I arrived to find four floats marking the position of what turned out to be a taxi and a crane getting ready to hook onto it. There were loads of cops there, again detectives and CSI guys. As I said, it is a restricted area and has security guards at the entrances so there was no need for uniformed officers to keep the public back or anything like that. There were only about ten or so of us who just happened to be down on the docks for work and who were able to stand around and watch.
I thought they would take the taxi away on a flatbed truck, but they just covered it over with the standard blue sheet and hauled it away with a wrecker about an hour and a half or two hours after it came out of the water.
One thing I noticed when they raised it was that the front wheels were cut all the way over to the right. That would have made it impossible for him to have entered the water from the dock where the taxi was found, and there were no obvious markings on the curbing he would have had to slam into
fast to clear anyway. The car drifted there from somewhere else before/while sinking. After they had removed the car and most all the cops were gone I went over and asked a CSI guy if they knew where the taxi had entered the water. He said he didn't know. Maybe he did and maybe he didn't. I have no way of knowing.
