«Breaking News» Woman is pulled from her submerged car after veering into a water-filled ditch

Incredible photos show the moment two sheriff’s deputies dramatically rescuing a woman who was seconds away from drowning when her car veered into a water-filled ditch and sank early New Year’s Day.

Amanda Antonio, 20, was driving eastbound on Interstate 4 near Tampa.

That was when another driver cut her off while they were both approaching the Highway 301 exit ramp, according to authorities.

Antonio lost control of her 2008 Toyota Scion, veered off the highway, and overturned in a water-filled ditch, Fox 13 TV reported.

She managed to find an air pocket and dialed 911, according to the Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office.

Deputies initially had a hard time finding her because of the thick fog.

Two Hillsborough County Sheriff's Deputies are seen above after they rescued a 20-year-old woman who nearly drowned when her car veered off the highway and into a water-filled ditch near Tampa early Tuesday morning

Deputies Jeremy Pollack and Chris Sullivan managed to rescue Amanda Antonio, 20, of Tampa, Florida, just moments before water reached her nose while she was trapped inside the car

Dramatic video footage captured by WFTS-TV showed Antonio being pulled out of the ditch by authorities

These images were taken just moments after she escaped death by drowning

Antonio (pictured above) was driving back from a New Year's party early Tuesday morning

‘The police couldn't find her,’ said her stepfather, Julio Perez.

‘She only had four percent [charge] on her phone.’

While on the phone with dispatchers, Antonio used the map feature to help deputies pinpoint her location.

During the phone call, dispatchers tried to encourage her not to give up as water began to reach her nose.

‘She said she was literally seconds, she was scared, she knew this was it,’ said Perez’s fiance, Wanda Guzman.

While driving eastbound on Interstate 4 near Tampa, another driver cut her off while they were both approaching the Highway 301 exit ramp, according to authorities

‘She wanted to call us, that's when the lady said, “Wait a minute, someone must be there”.’

When the first deputy arrived, he went into the ditch, only to realize that the water came up to his chest.

Time was running out for Antonio because the water level was rising inside the car.

‘It was thick, muddy, disgusting water,’ said Deputy Jeremy Pollack.

‘She was like, “It was already past my lip,” that she was breathing through her nose, pretty much,’ said Guzman.

‘(She) heard somebody saying, “Are you there, are you there? Can you hear me?”

‘That's when she started screaming at the top of her lungs.’

Pollack and another deputy, Chris Sullivan, managed to extricate Antonio from the passenger door.

‘In that scenario, where she was almost encased in mud, there was no way she would have been able to get out of that vehicle on her own,’ said Pollack.

Antonio was wearing a seat belt at the time of the crash. Authorities said alcohol was not a factor

Wanda Guzman, the fiance of Antonio’s stepfather, said Antonio nearly died.

‘When the operator got onto the phone, she told them, “I just got into a car accident, I am in a ditch somewhere, I don't know where I am at”,’ she said.

Dramatic video footage captured by WFTS-TV showed Antonio being pulled out of the ditch by authorities. 

She was released from the hospital three hours after she was admitted. Antonio did not suffer any serious injuries.

Antonio told dispatchers that the water was reaching her lips. With her phone battery at just 4 per cent, she used the map feature to help the dispatcher and deputies pinpoint her location

‘They are angels,’ Perez said of the dispatchers and deputies.

‘Thank you so much. Hopefully we get to meet them at least, anything we can do for them.

‘We are very lucky. Crazy way to start the year, but we are very thankful.’

Guzman said: ‘When she says the story, she cries.

‘She is scared, she says, “Mom, I was about to die. That was it, I thought I was gone”.’ 

Antonio was wearing a seat belt at the time of the crash. Authorities said alcohol was not a factor.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
