A woman is facing vehicular assault charges after a car rolled into Lake Washington Saturday evening which sent her and a teenage passenger to the hospital.
Seattle Fire Department (SFD) posted on X that crews were responding to reports of a car in the water at the boat launch at Be’er Sheva Park in the 9000 block of Seward Park Ave S.
SFD said crews arrived on the scene and reported the vehicle was located approximately 30-40 feet out from the shoreline. The Seattle Police Department’s Harbor Patrol worked with fire crews to locate the person in the water.
Four of the SFD’s rescue swimmers, four divers, and two rescue watercraft went into the water and began searching for the unaccounted-for person. Two aerial ladders were raised over the boat launch with lights to assist with search efforts, according to SFD.
