EUGENE, Ore. -- A truck that landed itself in the Willamette River was finally pulled out Wednesday after four days and some trial and error.
 
Crews said this situation was a public safety issue because the truck sat on top of an EWEB main water line.
 
The operation involved crews from Lane County Sheriff's Office, EWEB, T & M Towing, among others.
 
It also drew tons of spectators.
