Heart-stopping moment woman pulled from car surrounded by Tennessee floods

This is the heroic moment a man breaks through a submerged car’s window to pull out a woman who was trapped inside during the Chattanooga floods. Footage taken by a witness on Tuesday (12 August) shows the man dragging the trapped woman through the window, after he used a rock to smash it open. Heavy rain and flash floods battered southern Tennessee earlier this week, with a state of emergency declared around Chattanooga as rescue workers spent hours helping residents flee flooded homes and vehicles. A mother, father, and child died when an uprooted tree fell on their car on Wednesday (13 August).
