GAMBIER ISLAND, B.C. (CP) - A three-year-old boy who was sitting in a truck that

rolled into the water off a Gambier Island dock has died, the RCMP said Thursday.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The boy's desperate father

struggled frantically to rescue his son Quinlan on Wednesday afternoon after

the truck went into the water, said local resident Bob Switzer, who witnessed

the incident.

Mounties said the boy

had been left alone in the truck with the keys in the ignition while his

parents were loading supplies in the back of the vehicle.

His father dove into the

water, and after several tries managed to get his son out of the truck. He was

rushed to Children's Hospital in Vancouver, but staff couldn't revive him, police said.

Gambier Island is on the Sunshine Coast, off the coast of mainland British Columbia

northwest of Vancouver.
