@mattykjville They thought it might have been two cars or more than one person. Cleared the scene and after resuscitation, a woman was transported in critical condition.

yeah, someone went off the parkway. they think it was just one person and they were pulled from the river and are at the hospital. current condition is unknown. it’s now a recovery mission but they don’t think there’s anyone else down there at this time.
