Const. Krista-Lee Ernst wrote to Global News in an email, “Two heroic civilians and an officer went out to their aid and made every effort to rescue the driver.”
The four people inside the car stayed on the roof since it wasn’t completely submerged when they got the driver out.
Ernst claimed a private watercraft successfully extricated all four from the automobile.
There is still work being done to determine what happened.
