LAVAL, Que. — Police in the Montreal suburb of Laval say a mother who was behind the wheel of a vehicle that plunged into a river one week ago with her two children aboard has died of her injuries.
Laval police Const. Erika Landry confirmed the death of the 40-year-old woman earlier this morning.
The woman, her one-month old boy and four-year-old girl were in the car when it ended up in the shallow waters of the Rivière-des-Mille-Îles on Oct. 28 just before 5 p.m.
The girl survived and was released that evening from hospital, while the body of the month-old infant was recovered by Quebec provincial police divers on Monday during a third day of searching.
