Woman Drowns In Her Car After Police Threatens To Arrest Anyone That Helps Her

Woman-Drowns

A witness claims that police threatened some men that tried to help a woman trapped inside her vehicle. The car was stuck in a flood where she urgently need assistance, but the woman went on to drown.

The texas woman, Constance Manzanares, was driving down Vulcan Street when her 2005 Toyota Carolla became submerged in water. Ultimately, she could have survived if the group of men were able to help her.

KFOX14 reported that a witness claims to have seen police stopped several men from trying to save Manzanares.

“They went and tried to help this lady, they tried to help her, but the police said they can’t, they were yelling and everything, I don’t wanna say nothing bad about them, I know they give good service here and everything, but I said ‘Oh, my God,’” the witness said. “They hit the window on the driver’s side, and she tried to get out but there’s a fence right there, and she couldn’t get out. So she had all that weight with her and all the water inside. The men got scared, they didn’t want to leave, they were mad, so they got scared, people were yelling so they had to leave before they got arrested.”

“There were ambulances, there was the Fire Department, helicopters, airplanes, I said ‘Oh, my God, they’re not doing anything about it,’ so she passed away,” said the witness.

“We thought they were going to rescue her or come and do something, CPR, take her out, something, they have the tools, everyone had the tools, but they didn’t do anything. Nothing, they didn’t even touch the water,” she said. “It’s so sad. If it was my mother or my sister or someone, I would’ve gone and tried to rescue her.”

A story like this seems almost unreal. All these cops are supposed to serve and protect, so… I can already hear a p.r. person claiming that they only wanted to help everyone else. These were grown men that knew what they were capable of. It just doesn’t add up to how someone could threaten the people for doing good.
