Police marine personnel and EMS rescued and treated 16 people from the waters of Lake Ontario off Sunnyside Park Wednesday night when a dragon boat practice went wrong. The vessel capsized, throwing all on board into the chilly water. Paramedics say the boaters suffered minor hypothermia. The rowers were a pickup crew apparently brought together by a commercial dragon boat operation, As such, it was a challenge for police to make sure everyone was found and rescued. In the end, all are accounted for and safe.
