TMC NEWS / BRIAN WOODS

Eaton Township – People driving along Route 10 through Eaton Township Saturday morning might have thought there was a rescue operation going on in a local pond – What they saw was a team that had been assembled to remove a 1996 Buick from the bottom of the pond.

Troopers say that Friday morning 26 year old Tim Wilson of Lorain was traveling east on Route 10 when he lost control of his car. Wilson west off the right side of the road, down a hill, through a fence and ended up in a pond. Wilson was able to get out of the car on his own before rescue crews from Eaton Township Fire Department arrived on scene.

The car remained in the pond until Saturday morning when Specialized Divers from the Wellington Fire District assisted in hooking up the car. Technicians from D&A Towing worked with the Divers in pulling the car from the water. Paramedics from Eaton Township Fire Department stood by with an ambulance while the Divers were in the water.

Wilson was charged Friday with Failure to Control and Seatbelt.
