Summary:
Two Park Police officers observed a man deliberately drive his car into the
Potomac River near the Kennedy Center. Since the water there is only 2 1/2
feet deep, the car did not submerge. The officers were able to talk the man
back to shore. He was transported to George Washington Hospital for medical
and mental evaluation.
