Pair’s lucky escape from submerged car in Auckland harbour

Two people escaped from a submerged car in Auckland’s Westhaven Harbour on Wednesday afternoon, NZ Herald reports. A witness said he saw two men pull two women out of the car. “…the car was half in the water floating,” he said. The witness said he noticed a broken rail to the side of the road indicating that the car may have smashed into it before going into the water, and he praised the two men who helped the pair out of the car.
