INTERNATIONAL: A woman dies on Wednesday after her car was submerged steps away from Niagra Falls on the U.S.-Canada border and a dramatic rescue came up short. The rescue workers have arrived at the scene at around noon to lift a woman out of her car after it wound up in the Niagara River, some 150 feet before the brink.
A member of the Coast Guard Swift Water Rescue Team was lowered from a helicopter to the car but found the woman already dead inside. The area was experiencing typical November weather of freezing temperatures and precipitation.
Local police were seen beforehand calling in a drone to survey the scene before the U.S. Coast Guard took over the rescue. The woman was in her 60's.
