One person remains missing after what the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) are calling a water emergency at Pinery Provincial Park.
On Victoria Day, around 3 p.m., Lambton OPP were called to the shores of Lake Huron, to reports of a group of people in distress on a raft.
There were five people on the raft. OPP said two swam to shore and two others returned to the raft.
One person is still unaccounted for.
Details on the individuals involved, including ages, had not been released as of Tuesday morning.
“Out of respect for everyone involved and the ongoing investigation, limited information is being released at this time,” reads a release from OPP.
Police noted there is no concern for public safety but there would be an increased police presence at the park, as the investigation continues.
