Rescue workers used ropes to bring the woman to safety, and she was taken to a nearby hospital in stable condition. "Pretty sure that she was pretty shaken up, but looking at it from outside, she was fairly calm considering how dramatic this incident was," Coral Gables Fire Rescue Division Chief Xavier Jones said."I basically heard a car peeling out, like they hit the gas by accident or trying to go really fast. I heard a really hard crash, so I thought it was a car crash between two cars," Katiana Polanco said.
