Four children were found unresponsive on the shoreline in Portneuf-sur-Mer on Quebec's North Shore on Saturday, Quebec provincial police said, though they could not yet confirm their health statuses.
Four children have been found unresponsive and one man is missing after they went fishing in Portneuf-sur-Mer, pictured here last May, on Quebec's North Shore. Quebec provincial police say they believe the group was swept up by the rising tide in the St. Lawrence River Estuary.
The children were among five people reported missing when the 911 call came in around 2 a.m. Rescue teams are searching for the fifth person — a man in his 30s.
