Citizens braved cold Lake Ontario water in an unsuccessful effort to rescue a woman in a submerged car at the mouth of the Credit River in Mississauga Monday afternoon. In time, Peel Regional Paramedic Services finally were able to remove the lone occupant of the vehicle and take her to Trillium Health Centre. Her vital signs were absent. Police received a call at around 4:15 p.m. about a vehicle that went into the Credit River near Stavebank and Lakeshore Roads in Port Credit. They say they aren’t sure how the car got into the water. It appears the vehicle may have been submerged for two hours before the body of the woman was removed.
