Palm Beach County Fire Rescue said a car crashed into a canal Tuesday morning just off Florida’s Turnpike.

At 7:36 a.m., crews responded to the southbound Turnpike near the entrance ramp off Glades Road in southern Palm Beach County.

PBCFR Capt. Albert Borroto said first-arriving crews reported a vehicle fully submerged with a woman outside sitting on the bank.

She was transported to an area hospital for treatment.

The cause of the wreck has not been released.
