Hero rescuer who pulled women from sinking car 'just did my best'
Kia ora neighbours, a hero rescuer who pulled two women from a sinking car in Auckland harbour says he “just did my best” to help.
Will Sergeant was driving along Westhaven Drive, in central Auckland, on Wednesday afternoon when he heard a loud crash and saw a car go over the edge of the road into the harbour.
He leapt out of his vehicle, called out for help, and dived into the harbour after the car. He then set to work trying to free two women who were trapped inside.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
