OSCAR - A car rolled into False River on Sunday afternoon when the driver forgot to put the vehicle in park, officials said. 

First responders were called to the Sand Bar in Pointe Coupee Parish shortly before 5 p.m. No one was in the car when it entered the water. 

A dive team was sent in to secure the vehicle with a chain so a wrecker could pull it out. The vehicle was in 24 feet of water, the Pointe Coupee Parish Sheriff's Office said. The car was retrieved from the water at 8:30 p.m.
