Man rescued after driving vehicle into canal
An adult male was rescued after he drove his vehicle through the intersection of 17th Street and 45th E into a canal around 4:40 p.m Thursday.
Officials report the vehicle was pushed sideways by the water. 
A City of Ammon Public Works Employee happened upon the crash just prior to first responders and was able to break a window and free the man.
He was taken to the hospital to be checked out.
Deputies continue to investigate what happened.
Witness information and evidence on scene suggest that alcohol or other intoxicating substances may have been a factor in the crash.
No other occupants were found in the vehicle and no other injuries were reported.
Deputies with the Bonneville County Sheriff’s Office Dive Team were on patrol at the time and assisted in removing the vehicle from the water.
