Pair saves woman trapped in underwater car

TWO neighbours have saved a woman whose car ploughed through backyard fences and into a pool in southwest Sydney.

The East Hills men smashed the windows of the sinking station wagon to reach the 63-year-old local woman and pull her out about 11.20am (AEST on Sunday).

The woman was treated by paramedics before being taken to Liverpool Hospital in a stable condition.

Police said the car was being removed from the Lucas Street pool on Sunday afternoon.

They praised the efforts of the two rescuers, who have told the Seven Network they found the submerged car with all its doors locked and had to use a shovel to free the woman.

"We heard this really, really loud bang and didn't really know what it was," Bill Jessop said.

"Joe, the neighbour on the other side, was actually in the water trying to break the window of the car and he wasn't succeeding, the water was too deep."

The second neighbour, Joe Colosimo, described pulling the 63-year-old to safety with seconds to spare.

"From here down was all water," he said, gesturing at his chin.

"She probably had about another minute or two."
