NAPLES, Fla — A campaign volunteer saved a woman from a submerged car Tuesday morning, outside of a Naples polling place.
The volunteer, Jackie Ardoline, went to Covenant Church of Naples to hold up campaign signs for Collier County School Board Member Stephanie Lucarelli. She says when she pulled into the parking lot, she saw the car in the water and an elderly woman hanging out of the driver's side window.
Ardoline tells Fox 4 that she rushed into the water and helped the woman out of her car.
The Collier County Sheriff's Office says the woman in the car was taken to the hospital, but did not have major injuries.
Lucarelli called Ardoline an amazing person and now a hero.
