Keiontae Meyers of Broward, Florida, reportedly crashed a red Jaguar into a canal near Fort Lauderdale on Monday with three other people on board. Meyers, 20, was the only one who survived the crash. His three passengers were identified as Jarvis Mosley, Jasmine Davis, and Lucienne Pierre.
According to the police report, the accident occurred at NW 29th Avenue and NW 14th Street. Meyers was allegedly driving home from a nightclub after 5 a.m. when his car veered off 14th Street, broke through two fences and crashed into a canal. Witnesses told news sources that the car was speeding down the road and didn’t slow down before plunging into the water.
Meyers managed to swim out of the car and was helped out of the water by residents who heard the crash. Someone purportedly used a garden hose to pull him out of the water. Meyers was reportedly incoherent but he told rescue workers that there were two women and one man trapped in the car. He was transported to a local hospital for treatment and has since been released.
Deputies managed to recover the vehicle later in the day. They found and identified the bodies of Davis, 23, and Mosley, 21. After several hours of searching, Pierre, 26, was not found and is presumed dead. Officials said the search took so long because the vehicle plunged into muddy water full of long weeds. Visibility is extremely low and a diver actually found the Jaguar by crashing into it.
The cause of the accident is still under investigation. No charges have been filed.
