On Aug. 23, OPP were contacted about a marine incident on Lake Huron off the shore of Boiler Beach Road in Huron-Kinloss.
At approximately 8:35 p.m., three individuals were reported overdue by their family on Lake Huron.
Police launched a search for the individuals and determined their canoe had capsized, causing them to swim for over an hour.

The individuals were located in the water by the Kincardine Volunteer Auxiliary Coastguard Unit and brought to shore.
