Man dies after possible drowning in Cote Saint-Luc
An 89-year-old man has died after reports of a drowning at an apartment building in Côte-Saint-Luc on Monday.
Urgences-santé initially told CTV News that the man was believed to be in his 60s.
"The call came in at 2:11 p.m. An ambulance was dispatched to a residence on Norwalk Street for an intervention involving a man. I can confirm that he was not transported to the hospital," said Urgences-santé spokesperson Julie Gaulin.
According to Montreal police (SPVM), officers found the man unresponsive in an indoor pool when they arrived. They immediately began resuscitation efforts until paramedics took over.
