A woman was rescued early Tuesday from a white pickup truck that was trapped between two retaining walls in Northeast Austin, officials said.
Austin-Travis County EMS medics responded to the northbound service road of the 6500 block of Interstate 35 at 11:28 p.m. on Monday for a reported collision involving one vehicle.
The truck was found to be roughly 6 feet in the air, medics said.
A KXAN video shows Austin firefighters pulling the woman through the truck’s driver’s side window and onto the ground.
The woman was freed from the truck by around 12:14 a.m. with minor injuries that were not considered life-threatening, according to medics.
