Freighters are getting stuck in the St. Clair River, due to ice.

Sources say a total of five freighters were stuck in the ice not moving at 12 p.m.

Ferry service for the Walpole-Algonac Ferry Ltd. is temporarily suspended due to ice in the river.

Sources say the Bluewater Ferry in Sombra is shut down as well, although this has not been confirmed.

Todd Shepley captured a photo of a freighter stuck in the ice, just outside of Port Lambton.

We’ll provide more information as it becomes available.
