• Car plunges into backyard swimming pool in Massachusetts backyard (wbal.com) — A car delivering neighbors' packages rolled down a steep driveway and ended up fully submerged in a backyard swimming pool on Franklin Circle in Northborough, but no one was hurt. The driver escaped through a window, and Northborough firefighters later pulled the vehicle from the water. The crash damaged a fence and landscaping, and one lost package ironically contained chlorine tablets for the pool.
