MUSKOKA, Ont. — An Oakville woman is missing in a boating collision in Muskoka that killed a 13-year-old from Toronto and also injured several people, one of them critically.
OPP say one person, a 51-year-old woman from Oakville, Ont., is still missing following the Wednesday night crash on Lake Rosseau, and search efforts have resumed.
They say a total of six people were aboard the two boats that collided on the lake near Muskoka’s Windermere Marina on Wednesday.

That person is being treated for life-threatening injuries. Police say the other three have since been released.
