A 60-year-old Calgary man died after becoming trapped under his car during a sudden and intense downpour around supper time on Friday.
Calgary police said that in the height of the storm, the man attempted to move his car, which was parked on a hill in the 4600 block of 4th Street NW.
He somehow slipped under the car, and became trapped by the force of the water running down the hill that witnesses described as a "torrent."
Shannon Acton was passing in her car, and saw the rescue attempt unfold.
"A man flagged me down and [I] just saw there was an arm stuck behind the vehicle there. And yeah, the current was so much it actually had the whole back of the vehicle submerged in water," Acton said.
"There was a bunch of other people who stopped the same time as me. They were trying to get him out from under the vehicle but unfortunately they couldn't."
