Lift a white car from the water.

A car passing by Topjeong Lake in Nonsan, Chungcheongnam-do crashed through the reservoir railing.

All five college students in their twenties who were in the car were killed in this accident.

Two men were found underwater 15m deep, and three women were found in a car.

Around 6:30 am, a nearby resident found that the reservoir railing was broken and the bumper of the car was on the water and reported it to the police.

[목격자 : (난간이) 뚫어져 있는 거예요. 뚫어져 있는데 저기에 차가 들어간다는 생각은 아예 안 했죠. 미심쩍어서 (가까이) 갔더니 차 번호가 저쪽에서 보이는 거예요. 끝에서….]

The last time the accident car was photographed on a nearby CCTV was around 0:30.

Because of this, the police believe the accident occurred six hours before the initial report time.

It is said that the car in the accident suddenly turned while driving on the road and fell into the reservoir here.

The students who died were found to have borrowed a shared vehicle within the school about 8 minutes before the accident between their seniors and juniors at a nearby university.

The exact cause of the accident has not yet been identified.

The police decided to request an autopsy of the body and a vehicle identification to the National Institute of Scientific Investigation to check whether driving is inexperienced and speeding.
