Truck Crashes Through Wall Into Pool as Officers Jump In to Save Driver

Gilbert, United States – Police officers climbed into a backyard swimming pool to pull a driver from a pickup truck that had crashed through a wall and come to rest partly in the water.

Body camera footage released by Gilbert Police Department shows a red pickup nose-down in a residential pool on Saturday, September 19, with masonry scattered around the broken wall. Officers in the water support the driver beside the truck as they work to bring him out.

The department said officers jumped in after the truck landed in the pool, and that Gilbert Fire and Rescue also responded. The driver was brought to safety and given immediate care, police said.

The crash remains under investigation.
