The officers of the Orlando, Florida Police Department can be more than proud of their good work. Thanks to his quick reaction skills, they managed to save a man from a crashed car after he drove it into a retention pond. The viral video that recorded the intervention has been widely commented on by Internet users on YouTube.
The accident occurred when the man drove over the embankment while trying to negotiate the on-ramp to Interstate 4 from eastbound State Road 408.
When police arrived, they found the driver struggling to free himself from the sinking vehicle. Several officers immediately came to the man’s aid, jumping into the water to save him.
Video viral
Four Orlando officers can be seen on body camera footage running fearlessly in the dark water toward the helpless driver shortly after 10 p.m. on Aug. 6.
“He’s going lower!” one of the officers can be heard saying. Two officers quickly removed their bulletproof vests and tool belts and dove into the water to help free the man.
The officers finally managed to break the glass and free the driver, and just in time.
The car’s taillights appear to be the only visible part of the vehicle left as two other officers are seen swimming towards the trio with the rescue rope in hand.
The team used the yellow rope to pull the driver back to shore, but he slips underwater just before reaching shore.
