There were heavy showers reported in one section of Langley overnight.

Off roading in the Willoughby neighbourhood early this morning landed one driver in a heap of trouble, and a heaping of water.

At about 3:30 a.m. Monday (Aug. 6), a car went off the road at a turn in the road near 204th Street and 76th Avenue.

Township firefighters were called out to find the vehicle had struck a fire hydrant.

Witnesses say all occupants in the car escaped injury.

The hydrant, however, was broken off, and they high-pressure through the system had water spewing several metres skyward, drenching the vehicle and surrounding area.
