A woman trapped in her car for almost a week after a crash survived by dipping her hoodie in water from a ditch so she could drink. Brieonna Cassell, 41, from Wheatfield, Indiana, was reported missing by her family on 5 March. On Tuesday, after six days trapped, she was rescued when a man operating drainage equipment saw her car stranded off the road near the town of Brook. Johnny Martinez called his supervisor, Morocco fire chief Jeremy Vanderwall, and the pair checked the vehicle.
Sheriff Shannon Cothran, from Newton County Sheriff's Office, said on social media: 'In my book, Mr Martinez is a hero, and we can never thank him enough for his keen eye and quick action.' Her father, Delmar Caldwell, told ABC News that Ms Cassell had fallen asleep at the wheel while driving and veered into a ditch. She was stuck in the car with serious injuries to her legs and wrist, he said, and her phone was dead under the passenger seat.
