A car that was encased in ice in Philadelphia’s Fishtown neighborhood last week has been removed and towed away, its owner, Tianna Graham, shared on Monday.
The Honda Civic became covered in ice amid the storm and freezing temperatures last week.
When NBC10 spoke to Graham last week, she said the car was able to start but was unsafe to operate due to the ice covering the exhaust pipe.
“It’s fine. It’s kind of funny so it is what it is,” she said at the time. “I shoveled it out on Monday and I was driving on Tuesday and then left it in the same spot I shoveled out.”
Neighbors told NBC10 last week that a water main break caused water to flow down North Front Street for several days. Each time cars went by, water splashed onto the parked vehicles, creating more and more layers of ice.
Amid brutally cold tempertures, at least three cars were encased in ice along North Front Street in Philadelphia. NBC10 photojournalist J.R. Smith responded to the scene Friday morning.
