An 11-year-old girl is in some hot water after she sent her grandmother’s car plunging into a swimming pool at Kingston Village apartments in southwest Shreveport.

Margaret Gober said she was in her apartment when she heard a commotion outside. Her grandson screamed, Gober went to the door and saw her car in the pool, with her granddaughter Dineshia inside.

The girl can’t swim so her grandmother and an apartment complex employee helped her to safety. No injuries were reported.

The accident apparently happened as Dineshia was trying to turn on the car’s CD player. She accidentally put the car into drive and it hit some steps. She then put it in reverse, sending it across the parking lot, through a fence and into the pool.
