REDMOND, OR -- Two teens escaped through a sunroof, after a car crashed into a Redmond canal, Wednesday night. Emergency crews responded to the Central Oregon Irrigation District canal at NE King Way and N Canal Blvd. in Redmond at about 9 p.m.
According to Redmond Police, a witness to the crash was able to help the two girls out, and medics confirmed there were no injuries. COID also responded and put out booms to contain any potential oil and gas leaks.
The flow of the canal was reduced, allowing the car to be towed out. Investigators believe speed was a contributing factor and one girl was issued a ticket for careless driving.
