Hate to count how many times this has happened in the last 100 years. The police probably have a special code for it: “Barranca Splash!” Looks like a new car, too.

Police briefly shut down West Malvern Avenue going eastbound at West Bastanchury Road after a single-vehicle wreck on Wednesday afternoon.

 

At about 4 p.m., officers responded to a car that ended up in a water channel, Fullerton police said. There was only one occupant in the car at the time of the incident and she was not injured.

 

Officials tweeted out an advisory to commuters to avoid the area for the next two hours so firefighters could work to extract the car from the water channel.

 

Firefighters had to cut through a wired fence in order to get close enough to the car to rescue the driver.
