LONG NECK, Del. - Multiple crews were on scene around 3 p.m. Monday after a Subaru Outback drove off the road and into the marsh at Hazzard Lane.
The Indian River Volunteer Fire Company says for unknown reasons the driver drove off of Route 24 and into the marsh, but stopped when the vehicle was partially submerged into the water.
According to the company, crews had to use ground ladders to navigate the wet, marshy conditions to free the person in the Subaru, who was taken to the hospital. The vehicle had to be towed out.
Crews from Indian River and Lewes were on scene, as well as Mid Sussex Rescue Squad and the Sussex County Paramedics.
The road was closed for the duration of the incident and traffic was coordinated by the Delaware State Fire Police.
Delaware State Police are investigating.
