In Brook, Indiana, 41-year-old Brieonna Cassell was found alive after being trapped in her car for nearly a week following an accident. Falling asleep at the wheel, her car veered off the road into a ditch, rendering it invisible from the road. She managed to draw water from a nearby creek by dipping her sweatshirt into it. Family members had reported her missing and searched extensively. Cassell suffered multiple broken bones and was taken to a Chicago hospital for treatment, where she was reported to be in stable condition after surgery was scheduled.
Cassell had severe injuries from a car wreck yet managed to survive alone for nearly a week by ingeniously using her sweatshirt to drink creek water.
Authorities reported that Cassell's family frantically searched for her, traversing miles along roads and ditches, before she was discovered by a drainage worker.
