escaping the submerged SUV when deputies arrived they noted the suspect exhibited signs of intoxication bloodshot eyes and the unmistakable scent of alcohol further investigation would reveal that she had been driving 95 m per hour in a 45 mph Zone and neither the mother or her child were restrained in a seat belt it would also be revealed that the vehicle lacked a proper car seat for the child

in Old Dixie where are you going to take the little girl and I can have somebody transport him hang on what SEC sir right now it's kind of up in the air um it might be oh the Children's Hospital she really doesn't have any any pain per se but the mechanism of injury I didn't see where she was she was already out so the male pulled her out of the vehicle the guy that's over there I haven't been able to talk to him if you want to ask him the male pulled her the kid out first and then the mother I'll come over there in a second so sir can you text my cell phone so I can call you in a few minutes yes sir the little girl they're going to assess her to be sure there's no inter internal injury she literally drove like literally into a ditch there's significant damage hang on one sec okay yeah the baby [Applause] seat Well Sheely on the floor the pass I got down just got yes that is correct thank you are you going to work this yeah yeah okay I got it I was yeah I figured but I should call FHP as soon as I um she's wreaking of alcohol very overwhelming odor the fact the child got injured uh I'm I want to be sure it's done yeah he said the child was on the floor in the passenger seat when he got there yes they're asking us to you good yeah oh I didn't even freaking see that I just that giant um they're asking us to try to get a hold of Dad yeah I just talk to Dad this is Dad's car the only car okay he lefts up Oslo the tee that he's trying to figure out where they're going to take the child first before we figure out if we're going to transport D or not okay so already working on that on that yeah well he said he's trying to figure out whether he's the kids going to go to Children Hospital or a local hospital so could be Orlando it could be Lawnwood so uh she is definitely wreaking of alcohol the driver yeah she was overwhelming odor she was so she was uh punching at the Medics yeah so as soon as I'm done with the crash investigation where's she going the drivers they're going to airlift her I believe to Lawnwood okay um but I'm going to pursue a potential du investigation after I finish the crash what do you need for me I got all their info I just you their info then and then they're good to go got it all right man thank you once we get her out of uh yeah your guys car you guys are good to go I appreciate it if you get a phone call from a random number it's probably us just answer it for us sure just maybe some followup questions as to what you saw yeah there waai everybody leav we once they're out of the way yeah if you just give me a minute I'll get this one out and then you guys can bug out thank you so they will take a pediatric traa okay pediatric traa well they're going to evaluate or now to find out um I'm not sure about that all and since they don't have another vehicle I don't want to separate mom and kid yes per se but if we need to go get Dad maybe one of you guys can facilitate that I don't know if that's a you want us to bring him to the scene not not here but whatever hospital we end up taking yeah the local hospital guess if it's a local hospital or even Lawnwood or wherever it's local OB be your dad get there absolutely all right but just let me know let me know about the airlift for the child or not so they're assessing right now to see if she be pediatric airlifted okay um if they do she's probably going to go to Orlando or West Palm uh he'd probably be able to give you all me okay we responded here reference a crash in the ditch uh we get here there was a 5-year-old involved in the crash uh upon speaking to some witnesses we find out that ultimately the driver was driving too fast didn't have enough time to stop at the stop sign and ended up in the ditch uh Deputy Ru is was first Deputy on scene uh was able to get the 5-year-old out of the car and uh while speaking to the driver could smell an overwhelming odor of alcohol coming off her breath so both the driver and her daughter are going to uh hospitals right now they're being assessed by medical staff to see what hospital that's going to be and uh and then Deputy Ru is going to follow up with the DUI investigation on the driver so thankfully the 5-year-old's okay Mom appears to be okay and uh they're on their way to the hospital and then uh like I said Deputy Ru be following up up with the DUI investigation how was the 5-year-old talking the 5-year-old is obviously a little bit upset uh her only concern was the fact that she didn't want to get a shot so we're trying to make sure that happens and uh get her leg looked at she's complaining of leg pain be the right guy at the right time right spot at the right time but at this point I believe he has all your information you folks are good to go okay appreciate how do I how do I get say again how do I get to see your it's live right now it's yeah it's live if it airs it's live right now so you can see rewatch on all right yeah thanks all right man have a good night interview you uh the 5-year-old's blown out to Orlando and uh the mom's blown out to lawn so I gota gol and so uh what do you want to do about that um I'll make that I mean with the Orlando
