Divers recently found the body of 46-year-old Roberto Molina Alvarado of Donna, Texas. The truck driver had stopped his 18-wheeler in an eastbound lane of the bridge late Wednesday night or early Thursday when Ivan made landfall, according to the Florida Highway Patrol’s preliminary investigation. The bridge collapsed, causing the truck’s cab and part of the trailer to fall into the bay, according to an FHP news release.
