警方公布的视频显示，周六在得州南部，一名驾车者驶入因暴雨被淹没的浅滩后，车辆被困洪水中，救援人员成功救出一名婴儿。
由比维尔警察局分享的https://www.facebook.com/reel/1032012616164389 显示，急救人员安全将坐在婴儿提篮里的婴儿救出，其他警员和消防员则协助营救车辆上其余的乘客。警方表示，无人受伤。
警方称，这辆车驶入了比维尔一处被洪水淹没的浅滩，比维尔市位于圣安东尼奥东南约100英里处。强降雨快速席卷该地区，当局尚未设置路障阻止车辆尝试穿过这条小溪。警方表示，当地消防队长曾试图示意司机停车，但司机并未看到他挥手示意。
车辆驶入被淹浅滩后，司机无法再控制车辆，湍急的水流开始将车辆冲走。
在视频中，急救人员进入积水区域，从乘客侧车门将婴儿救出。惊慌失措的司机将坐在婴儿提篮里的婴儿递给救援人员，第二名救援人员迅速用外套盖住婴儿，为孩子遮挡瓢泼大雨。目前尚不清楚车内是否有其他乘客。
浅滩桥梁仅建于所跨越水域的水面上方，这类设施危险性极高，在风暴期间极易发生严重积水。得州科珀斯克里斯蒂的国家气象局已发布针对比县阿兰萨斯河的洪水预警。
比维尔警方表示，浅滩周边的路况可能会迅速变化，“前一分钟看起来还能通行”，“下一秒就会变得极其危险”。
“这类事件提醒我们，绝不能拿洪水冒险，”警方部门表示，“并不需要多深的流动积水就能将车辆推离路面，等你意识到危险时，往往已经为时已晚。”
警方敦促民众在暴雨期间减速驾驶，在浅滩以及其他“已知会积水”的路段附近加倍小心。
“任何差事、捷径或是目的地，都不值得你拿自己和家人的生命安全冒险，”警方部门说道。

Police video showed the dramatic rescue of an infant from a car trapped in floodwaters in southern Texas on Saturday, after the driver of the vehicle entered a creek crossing that had become inundated by heavy rain.
https://www.facebook.com/reel/1032012616164389shared by the Beeville Police Department showed first responders safely retrieving the baby in its carrier, while other officers and firefighters helped rescue the remaining occupants of the vehicle. No one was hurt, the department said.
The car had driven into a flooded low-water crossing in Beeville, a city some 100 miles southeast of San Antonio, police said. Heavy rain had moved quickly into the area, and authorities had not yet set up barricades to prevent vehicles from trying to cross the creek. Police said the local fire chief had attempted to signal to the driver to stop, but the driver did not see him waiving.
Once the car entered the flooded crossing, the driver could no longer control its movements and rushing water started to push it away.
In the video, first responders entered the flooded area and pulled the infant out through the passenger’s side door. Panicked, the driver handed the infant to the responder in a baby carrier, and a second responder quickly covered it with his coat to shield the child from falling rain. It was unclear whether there were other passengers inside the car.
Low-water crossings are built just above the surface of the bodies of water they traverse, making them quite dangerous and prone to severe flooding during storms. The National Weather Service in Corpus Christi, Texas has issued a flood warning for the Aransas River in Bee County.
Beeville police said conditions around low-water crossings can change rapidly, and one “may look passable one minute” but “quickly become dangerous the next.”
“Situations like this are a reminder that flood water is nothing to gamble with,” the police department said. “It does not take much moving water to push a vehicle off the roadway, and by the time you realize how dangerous it is, it can already be too late.”
Police urged people to drive slowly during periods of heavy rain and exercise extra caution near creek crossings, as well as other roadways “that are known to take on water.”
“No errand, shortcut, or destination is worth risking your life or your family’s safety,” the department said.
