Car submerged in water on road in Santa Cruz
The Central Coast is getting blasted with rain causing some major flooding in areas of Santa Cruz County.
A car was completely submerged in water on Brookwood Drive in Santa Cruz.
A tow truck arrived but said it was too hazardous to go in and pull the car out. Another tow truck is on its way.
The California Highway Patrol said the driver is ok. They want to remind folks not to drive through roadways that are flooded.
“You never know how deep the water may be,” said CHP Officer Sam Courtney.
KION’s Ashley Keehn will have more on flooding in Santa Cruz County at 5 and 6 p.m.
