An investigation is underway after a car fell off a small ferry and into the water between Laval and Île-Bizard on Wednesday.
A 67-year-old man managed to escape his sinking vehicle and was later treated for nervous shock in hospital, according to multiple media reports.
A ferry employee reportedly jumped into the water of the Rivière des Prairies to rescue the man.
CityNews has reached out to Laval police for more information.
The Transportation Safety Board of Canada, which has deployed a team of investigators, says the car “fell into the water while driving off the cable ferry Paule II.”
