We were trolling the bank in contraband bayou catching bait to go offshore the next day. we heard a loud noise and looked up and a dodge 4 door was coming down west 18th by the waste water plant full speed. we had just enough time to troll forward and get out of the way. the truck caught the last 6 inches of the motor. i tried to dive out of the boat but ended up inside because the boat swung so fast when it got hit. it threw my other two buddies out. the truck ended up all the way across the bayou sinking with 3 people inside, and they finally got out before it sank. real weird situation, they had guns and a pile of cash and were all from out of town. never got the whole story but the cops and kplc came. the driver of the truck never even got a ticket
