CLEARWATER, Fla. — A driver out for a morning walk parked on a Florida beach and returned to find that high tide had rolled in as well.
Clearwater police said the car was illegally parked near a habitat restoration area when the high tide from Tampa Bay flooded it.
“Be very careful of where you park when you go for a walk at sunrise and the tide comes rolling in along the Courtney Campbell Causeway,” police said on social media. “The sign and barriers are there for a reason.”
