Car Crashes Into Ross Township Swimming Pool




ROSS TOWNSHIP (KDKA) – A local woman was startled when she found a car floating in her swimming pool.

It happened when a car carrying two people crashed into the pool at a home on William Street in Ross Township.

The two people inside the car weren’t injured and were in the home’s driveway when emergency responders arrived on scene.

They said they were having trouble with the car’s brakes before it crashed.

The homeowner said it could have been worse had the weather been nicer. She said she babysits and the children are usually in the pool during the summer.

“All the sudden I heard what sounded like garbage cans being rolled down the neighbor’s yard and it was like screeching and I looked out and I didn’t see anybody and then I looked toward my pool and I saw a car in it,” said homeowner Debbie Miller.

Crews are also working to pump out the pool water so that it doesn’t flood the house.

Car crashes into Ross Township swimming pool

UPDATED 4:15 PM EDT Apr 16, 2015


Video from Sky 4 showed a 4-door sedan laying on it's side wedged between the pool and a retaining wall. The side of the pool was knocked out from the crash.
Crews were able to remove the car. A tow truck used two cable wires to pull the car over the retaining wall onto the home's driveway. The top of the retaining wall crumbled when the car was pulled over it.

The cause of the crash is under investigation.
Police say no one is under arrest or charged as a result of this accident.
The condition of the driver is not immediately known.
