The expert analysis revealed the specific cause of death of those who fell into the pond in a Lexus in Nizhny Tagil.
The expert analysis revealed the exact cause of death of those who fell into the pond in Nizhny Tagil in the Lexus today at 14:33. A source close to law enforcement agencies told E1.RU that the young people in the Lexus, which fell into the water of the Nizhny Tagil pond, died from water entering their airways.
“All three died from water inhalation. There are no serious injuries visible on their bodies upon external inspection because the airbags deployed,” explained the E1.RU source. “There were minor facial injuries, bruises, and cuts typical for drivers and passengers in sudden braking or frontal impact. Nothing fatal.”
All three were not wearing seat belts. According to the E1.RU interviewee, rescuing the driver and passengers had only a few seconds, but the car fell onto its roof and the people were inside the cabin upside down. Therefore, they did not have enough time to unlock the doors, open the windows, and evacuate before the interior filled with water.
“Then the car sinks, and even if the vehicle is in working condition, water pressure prevents the doors and windows from opening. And not everyone can break a window with bare hands,” added the portal’s source.
Earlier, we reported on the identity of the 19-year-old driver and his two 20-year-old passengers. Recall that the black Lexus fell into a pond on the night of Tuesday, July 8. The deceased driver, who had obtained his license 11 months prior, was recording a video with a friend — approaching the turn at speed. The friend survived because he exited the car to film the maneuver from a different angle. He captured the moment when, passing by him, the vehicle failed to brake in time, broke through the pond's embankment barrier, and fell into the water with people inside.
