PASADENA, Calif.—A car crashed and ended up in a swimming pool of a residence in Pasadena Jan. 10, but no one was hurt.
Paramedics and police were sent to the 700 block of West California Boulevard about 9 a.m., said Lisa Derderian of the city of Pasadena.
“A Tesla driver hit the accelerator instead of the brake, drove through a wall, and into a pool,” Derderian said in a statement.
Derderian told City News Service that two staff members at a preschool next door to the residence rescued the car’s occupants—two adults and a 4-year-old child.
“The good Samaritans jumped in and saved them before it submerged—more than likely saved them from injury or worse,” Derderian said.
The circumstances of the crash remained under investigation.
