Car Pulled From Okanagan Lake in Peachland
On May 6, a car was reported to have entered Okanagan Lake near the boat launch off Highway 97 in Peachland.
The vehicle was found fully submerged about 20 feet from shore, and its lone occupant was uninjured, stating the car had been parked and accidentally entered the water.
Specialized equipment was arranged to recover the car safely due to its location and depth.
The Ministry of Environment and Climate Change Strategy was notified to assess environmental impacts, and West Kelowna RCMP confirmed there is no risk to public safety.
