Boat sinks in the Sydenham River in Wallaceburg

A half capsized blue and white houseboat is sitting in the Sydenham River near the Lord Selkirk Bridge in Wallaceburg.

We spotted the boat earlier on Monday afternoon, and captured these photos:

A dozen people were seen this evening along the shore near the boat.

They were joined by a salvage crew, complete with a barge and crane.

We’re still working on gathering details about the situation.

Here are some more photos:
