This happened a few miles from me and near where I used to live. I am absolutely raging still. I'm glad they have identified in the scum involved.

This caught my eye:

As well as being shaken up by the incident the pensioner, who does not wish to be named, lost a 'silver dollar keyring' in the river, which was his only connection to his father who he never knew.

The daughter said: 'It's a really little thing but sad, my dad never knew his father but had a silver dollar from him that he had made into a keyring.

'He has kept the all his life and it's the only thing he has that is a connection to him and he has lost it in the river.

This has got me thinking, is there anything we could do to help try and recover this? I have no knowledge but have searched online and cant find anyone commenting that they would like to try and recover this and get it back to him?

I'm happy to help, but don't have the skills or kit, but thought I'd ask?

Assuming the keyring has keys on it, magnet fishing?
