Motorists & others advised to not be alarmed by light from pond!
A single vehicle crash that occurred earlier this evening at 1502 Twp. Rd. 150, Harrod resulted in the vehicle being submerged in a pond. The driver, who was the lone occupant was able to exit the vehicle to safety.
It was determined that divers and the towing & recovery company will return to the scene tomorrow to extract the vehicle from the pond.
