Man Saves Trapped Woman After She Drove Car Into Swimming Pool

A hero dove into action when a woman drove her car into a Fort Lauderdale, Florida, apartment complex swimming pool — pulling her out of the sinking vehicle.

Witnesses came out of their homes after hearing a loud crash and saw the sedan in the pool with its female driver trapped inside.

The driver had crashed through a fence next to the complex’s parking lot before belly-flopping into the pool, with residents speculating that she accidentally hit the gas instead of her brakes.

T.J. Yarborough, who lives at the complex, quickly jumped into the water and saw that the panicked woman could not exit the vehicle.

He “got her out of the car…  she’s good and she’s safe.”

The shaken driver, who didn’t want to be identified, was thankfully uninjured.

Emergency crews eventually fished the damaged car out of the pool.

Police continue to investigate the cause of the accident.
