Indiana woman crashes in the trench, and remains on the creek water for 6 days

Her father says that a woman in Indiana destroyed her car in a trench and broke her legs for nearly a week by dipping her clothes in a relative creek and absorbing water.

Briona Cassel, a 41 -year -old mother from Witfield, Indiana, in the hospital recovering from her injuries after she spent six days besieged in her car on the side of the road, and was severely shouting to help, and her phone is far from.

“She is in good morale. She is a strong girl,” told her father, Delmar Caldwell, As it happens Host Nil Köksal. “It’s a better person than me. I don’t think he could have made her long.”

Do not respond to her phone

For the first time, Caldwell had become a mistake when Casseel’s mother called him last week and said that her daughter did not pick up her phone. Try to contact her himself, and go directly to the audio.

So they contacted her children, between the ages of 16, 21 and 23. But she did not answer their calls or messages as well.

“We knew there was something wrong,” he said. “I mean, it’s one thing to ignore her parents, but not her children. She will never do it.”

As soon as it became clear that it was missing, the police began the investigation, and appealed to the family to help social media.

Caldwell says that he spent the week to drive into different cities, to follow the threads of people who said they saw them. He was on his way to a store to check the control footage when he received a call from the police, saying that Kasil had been alive and was being transferred to the hospital.

His voice said, “I had to withdraw.” “I lost it, but I was very grateful and thank you so much that it was alive. I began to lose hope.”

What happened?

It turned out that Cassel was sleeping on the wheel while returning from a friend’s house. When I woke up, it was at the bottom of a six -meter trench in Brock, Indiana, invisible for passers -by.

“She told me yesterday that she was hearing cars by car all the time,” said Caldwell. “She was trying to scream, but she had several broken ribs, which made it very difficult.”

He said that her phone had slipped under the passenger seat, and she could not reach it. She has suffered from compound fractures – when broken bones are approaching across the skin – in both legs and wrist.

In the end, her phone battery died.

“For this reason, when we called, it was directly related to the voice mail,” said Caldwell.

Caldawil says his daughter told him that she would remain warm using Al -Moazi who had in the back seat. During the first two days, she drank a bottle of water in her car.

When it ran out, I had to rely on the creek water at the bottom of the trench.

“She was able to open the side door of the driver … and she used her good arm to swing her clothes there and enjoy her, then pulled her back and absorb water from her clothes,” said Caldwell.

The good Samaritan, volunteer firefighters for rescue

According to the Newton County OfficeIt was the good Samaritan who eventually saved Cassel’s life.

Johnny Martinez was working near a drainage company on Tuesday. From his point of view, he discovered Casseel.

Police says he called his supervisor, who had happened to a volunteer fire chief. The two approached the car, and Cassel saw inside.

Police said that the first two respondents of three different volunteer fire sections helped produce them.

“Newton’s boycott may be small, but we are strong – thanks to a large part of our volunteer firefighters,” Sheron Shannon Kawtharran said in a post on social media. “In my book, Mr. Martinez is a hero, and we can never thank him enough for his intense eye and quick work.”

CBC could not reach Martinez for comment. Caldawil says he is trying to arrange a meeting to thank him personally.

“I don’t think she had made her another day,” he said.

Long road forward

Cassel, at the same time, is still in the intensive care unit. Because her wounds have not been treated for a long time, Caldwell says that doctors are trying to prevent infection from spreading.

Her father said: “They are working to try to help her keep her legs … and we hope that her arm is.”

Cassell’s daughter has created the Go Fund Me page entitled “BRIEONNNA CASSELL’s Medical Recovery” to help pay the price of what they expect to be a long road, including multiple surgeries.

However, Caldawil says that his daughter takes everything in a step. The first thing I did when I got out of the emergency room, he says, he was eating.

“She was eating like a pig,” he said. “She was sweeping her as quickly as possible.”

When she arrived at the hospital for the first time, he says she was pleading with Orange Sherbet. He says he could not believe that, but they made sure that she got some as soon as doctors gave everything-besides a more fundamental meal, of course.

Whatever happens after that, Caldawil says he is happy because she survived.

“We are very grateful,” he said. “It’s alive. It’s safe. It’s warm.”
