INDIAN CREEK, Fla. – A pickup truck crashed into the water Wednesday off Indian Creek.

Sky 10 was above the scene just after 2 p.m. and saw the truck fully submerged in the ocean near the 9500 block of West Harbor Drive.

Authorities said a woman drove the lawn truck off the dock while working near a pool at a building.

She was helped out of the water by people who were working with her, police said.

The woman was given a field sobriety test, which police said she passed.

Local 10 News reporter Neki Mohan was at the scene as the woman was taken away in handcuffs. Police said she was arrested on charges that are unrelated to this incident, but did not specify what kind of charges she is facing.

People who were working with the woman told Mohan that she is 49 years old.

Her identity has not been released.
