Woman Drives Car Into Waters of Ocean Beach

A car somehow ended up in the waters of Ocean Beach Friday morning, fire and National Park Service officials said.

Firefighters responded at 6:24 a.m. to a report of a vehicle in the water near the Beach Chalet restaurant at 1000 Great Highway, a fire dispatcher said.

A victim inside the car was taken to a hospital, according to the dispatcher. She said she did not have more information about the victim or possible injuries.

National Park Service spokesman George Durgerian said he could not provide additional information about the incident because investigators were still trying to figure out how the car ended up in the water.
     
Park police are waiting until the tide goes down before trying to retrieve the vehicle from the water, the fire dispatcher said.
