Another accident involving a Jeep Cherokee happens in New Orleans where a body of a Metairie man who was said to be fleeing a hit and run wreck was found inside a submerged Jeep Cherokee in the Soniat Canal early Sunday. Jefferson Parish Sheriff Office divers were the ones who pulled the body out of the sunken vehicle. According to Col. John Furtunato, Sheriff's Office spokesman, the man was 30 years of age. The official however, refrained from revealing the victim's name since they have to notify the relatives first.

According to witnesses they have been following the Jeep Cherokee with a Chevrolet Monte Carlo heading eastbound on Airline Drive at North Elm Street and about half a mile away the Jeep crashed through a barricade before finally falling into the canal at North Lester. The man was pronounced dead at 4:42 am. No other injuries were reported in the accident.

More news on the Jeep Cherokee but this time it's not a car accident but a carnapping incident involving a stolen Jeep Cherokee that happened in Warren, Michigan. According to police operatives the stolen Jeep headed to the BP Gas Station at Ten Mile and Mound Roads where the carnapper stole a windshield washer fluid.

Further reports said that while the Jeep was fleeing from the police, the car thief crashed into a police cruiser near Mound and Eight Mile Roads. Police said that the same guy was responsible for stealing solvent from a Mobile Gas Station on Schoennherr in Sterling Heights Monday morning. The car thief is still at large; operatives are asking the public to call them for any lead.

The week was loaded with accidents involving Jeep Cherokee. These accidents however, were not caused by faulty Jeep parts like damaged Jeep alternator not even an error in wiring, etc. --- obviously, it's nothing of that sort.
