One person has drowned in the Grand River, in a late-summer tragedy in Elora.<\/p>\n
Wellington Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) said it happened around 6:30 Sunday evening, at the Bissell Park bridge.<\/p>\n
Police said a 29-year-old jumped off the bridge into the Grand, and never came back up.<\/p>\n
First responders went into the water, and found their body.<\/p>\n
Police said the person from Brampton was pronounced dead at the scene.<\/p>\n
The OPP said the victim\u2019s identity will not be released out of respect for the privacy of the family.<\/p>\n
And after the coroner attended the scene, the incident was declared non-suspicious.<\/p>\n
West Region OPP put out a notice on X around 7:00 that evening, saying officers from the Wellington detachment were responding to \u201ca marine incident.\u201d<\/p>\n
At 2:30, Monday morning, a second post announced the investigation at the scene was over, adding a word of thanks to everyone who shared the online appeal for witnesses.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"One person has drowned in the Grand River, in a late-summer tragedy in Elora.
