That’s Bob Kramer’s 9-month-old Lexus after floating in water from a flash flood more than three feet deep on Stable Lane after 9 p.m. Monday night, May 2. He noted that water rose inside the car up to driver's seat. The Fire Department responded in 15 minutes to his 911 call. He then waited two hours for AAA to get the car towed to the dealer.

Pete Piringer of Montgomery County Fire and Rescue reported a water Rescue in the 10550 block of Stable Lane in River Falls around 9:25 p.m. on Monday, May 2. "Several occupants have been removed from vehicles," he said. Other water rescues occurred at 10600 block Falls Road near Bullis School and at Bradley Boulevard and Seven Locks Road, as well as several other places in the county.
