Oklahoma City, OK - First responders rescued a man from an overturned car in a creek near Southeast 39th Street and Santa Fe Avenue in Oklahoma City on Thursday evening, with bodycam footage showing the dramatic rescue.
Officers initially did not realize someone was inside the vehicle until they entered the water.
"There's someone inside. You said there is someone inside? Yeah, I hear him," an officer could be heard saying in the video.
The team worked to keep the driver talking while they came up with a plan to get him out of the car.
"Can we get something to open the back, maybe jaws? We got the window open," another officer said.
Bodycam footage shows officers and firefighters pulling the man out of the car through a window and out of the water.
Authorities confirmed the driver was the only person in the vehicle. He was checked out by first responders and is expected to be OK, police said.
