Woman nearly drowns after plowing into fire hydrant

A Florida woman nearly drowned after she drunkenly slammed into a fire hydrant. 

She hit the hydrant so hard it created a sinkhole that was big enough to swallow up her vehicle, WESH reports.


Two good samaritans tried to rescue the driver who’s been identified as 21-year-old Alexandrea  Runyon. 

When the mother and son tried to help, the hole widened taking the woman down too.
