Acting Saint John Fire Platoon Chief Patrick Thebeau said the car did not enter the water because it was low tide.

He said three of the four occupants of the car were able to escape unharmed, but the fourth needed to be pulled up from the site using a rope rescue. That person was taken to hospital with non-life-threatening lower-body injuries.

Saint John Police are investigating the crash.
