(COLORADO SPRINGS) — The Colorado Springs Fire Department (CSFD) rescued a driver who was trapped in her car after intense amounts of hail fell and became lodged against her tires.
CSFD responded just after 7:15 p.m. to the area of East Platte Avenue and Tia Juana Street, near Fargo’s Pizza, for a water rescue. CSFD said the woman’s tires had become packed with hail stones, leaving her car stuck.
After becoming stuck, heavy rain resulted in a flash flood, trapping the woman in her car. She was safely rescued from her car by CSFD crews, according to FOX21’s crew on the scene.
