TV Reporter in Houston Saves a Man’s Life in Floods

Torrential rain has poured on Houston. Some areas of the city are under water and that includes roads, which has been dangerous for some drivers.

FOX’s Dave Anthony reports:

It was a deluge dumped on Houston, Texas, well over a foot of rain in 24 hours. Neighborhoods were flooded Monday morning and so were many roads. Some drivers chanced it and got in trouble:

(Campion) “Dude you got to get out of the car.”

That man’s car was floating away:

(Campion) “Got to get out. (Man) What should I do? (Campion) Swim. (Man) What? (Campion) Swim.”

KTRK TV reporter Steve Campion…

Then waded out to help the swimming driver, who seemed shocked and confused…

And then back on land the man said:

(Man) “I’m okay. (Campion) You’re okay? (Man) Yeah, I’m okay. (Campion) Did you just not think the water was that deep? (Man) Yeah I didn’t think the water was that deep. My car is under. (Campion) You gotta leave the car.”

It sank completely underwater.
