A woman was rescued by firefighters after their car was dangling off the fourth floor of a parking garage in Coral Gables. Coral Gables Police and fire rescue crews arrived at the scene at 1500 block of San Remo, Monday morning. 7Skyforce hovered over the scene, where the white vehicle was seen dangling off the ledge of the parking lot. “Right now, we’re being told that she may have made a mistake and pressed the accelerator and that’s what caused her to go through the wall,” said Coral Gables Fire Rescue Division Chief Xavier Jones. At the scene, crew brought over a lift and were able to extricate the woman from the vehicle in what they refer to as a high-angle rescue. Cellphone video showed a fire responder being lowered to the driver’s side of the car. The woman was then placed on a stretcher. “There is no additional injuries and at this time, the firefighters were able to repel down and get her out of the vehicle and rescue her to safety,” Jones said. Due to the car crashing over the ledge, some debris landed on the roof of a vehicle that was on the street. It is unclear if anybody was inside that vehicle. As of 12 p.m., the vehicle is still on the ledge. Crews are now working to remove the vehicle.
