SCOTTSDALE, AZ \u2014 A man has died after his vehicle was found submerged in water at Vista Del Camino Park during Friday night’s storms.<\/p>\n

Scottsdale police say officers were called out around 7:40 p.m. on Friday to the area near 77th and Garfield streets after reports of a vehicle in the water. <\/p>\n

When they arrived, they found the car nearly fully underwater, with only the trunk visible.<\/p>\n

Due to conditions, officers couldn\u2019t reach the vehicle and fire crews were called for assistance for a swift water rescue. <\/p>\n

Attempts to reach the vehicle\u2019s registered owner were unsuccessful. <\/p>\n

Family members later told police that 38-year-old Ander Polanco had not been heard from since around 6:15 p.m. He was last known to be out delivering food. A missing person report was filed, and an alert was sent to the Department of Public Safety.<\/p>\n

After levels lowered early Saturday morning, officers found a body outside the vehicle.<\/p>\n

Scottsdale police have confirmed the victim was Polanco. <\/p>\n

An investigation is ongoing. <\/p>\n
