Jane McArdle, Mary McCollum, Eleanor Cart, Clarke Jones, and Kaitlyn Iannace were on a routine drive when they witnessed a white SUV veer off the road and roll into a creek.
Without a moment’s hesitation, these extraordinary individuals sprang into action. Turning their vehicle around, they rushed to the crash site, where the submerged car posed a dire threat to the trapped occupants.Â
“We just see a vehicle submerged in the middle of a creek, and just sinking by the second more and more under so we just throw our stuff aside really without much hesitation and just jump in,” McCollum told ANF.
