MARION, Ark. — An elderly Arkansas father was rescued from a flooded ditch by his son Thursday night.
Jerry Webb says it was raining hard when he was coming home. When he was about to turn into his subdivision, the 81-year-old accidentally drove his car into a ditch.
“Went in that flood, and that flood just took me right through those two tunnels. I could hear it hitting on my car, and I’m like what the hell is that,” said Webb.
