• As a child stood near a canal in Cape Coral, Florida, a Dodge Challenger left the road nearby at a high rate of speed and plunged into the canal nose first, NBC2-TV reported -- fortunately just missing the child.
"I can only imagine how he's feeling," said Lorraine Holder, who lives on the canal and had a home security camera trained on the water that captured the incident.
The car's airbags deployed, which made it difficult to get the driver out, but a Good Samaritan helped him escape before it sank completely.
No injuries were reported. [NBC2, 10/17/2023]
