UXBRIDGE, Mass. (AP) — Twin sisters ended up taking an icy plunge on their way to school, when their Lexus veered off the road and into a backyard swimming pool.
Police say the 17-year-old girls were headed to Blackstone Valley Regional Vocational Technical High School in Uxbridge, Massachusetts, before 8 a.m. Wednesday when the car crashed into a utility pole. It then crashed into a fence and went into the shallow end of the pool.
The airbags deployed, and the girls were able to climb out of the sunroof.
Homeowner Muhamed Alomar says he helped the girls get out of the car and brought them into his house to warm up.
The girls refused medical treatment. Police are investigating the cause of the crash.
