Justin Bates, a 15-year-old from West Valley City, was among five people riding in a car that lost control and careened off the road near Indiana Avenue and Delong Street in Salt Lake City on Saturday. Family members said Bates also made it out safely but turned around to attempt to rescue the 2-year-old girl left inside the submerged car, Fox 13 Salt Lake City reported. The Salt Lake City Fire Department arrived soon after and jumped into the water while bystanders also helped. One officer dove into the water multiple times, unable to get into the car, the police department said. Investigators believe speed played a role in the crash and did not expect charges to be brought against the driver.
