1 dead, 1 recovering after car goes into water at Sausalito Yacht Harbor, police say

SAUSALITO, Calif. (KGO) -- One person is dead and another is recovering after a car went into the water at the Sausalito Yacht Harbor Monday afternoon, police said.

Police say the passenger exited the vehicle prior to it entering the water, while the driver remained inside and was unable to exit before the vehicle became submerged.

An emergency dive team was deployed to the scene and rescued the driver, who was transported to a local hospital where they were pronounced dead.

The second occupant was evaluated at the scene and did not require transport.

The car appears to be overturned in the water.

The timeline to remove the car from the harbor is unclear.
