The car was coming from a side street and collided with the divider which led to a much like a T-bone crash, The Washington Post reported. The car crash caused a small fire at the place.

"The fire was quickly extinguished by the first arriving units," Captain Stephen Horner of the Orange County Fire Authority told the Daily Mail.

To rescue the trapped person, "USAR was able to access the passenger door."

Horner further added, "They used a front loader from the city of Santa Ana to stabilize the vehicle and the members of USAR were able to gain access and pull the victim out from the passenger side of the vehicle safety."

Santa Ana police also said that the driver has admitted to having used narcotics.
