Update: Search underway for kayaker near Bluewater

Emergency services are searching Lake Huron this morning for a potentially missing person.

Huron County OPP said they received several marine calls of a kayak adrift in the waters near Sunview Avenue in the Municipality of Bluewater.

The kayak was located by the Canadian Coast Guard unoccupied.

Investigators are now conducting an active search in the area to determine if an individual is in the water.

Police say the search is ongoing, and updates will be provided when new information becomes available.

Initially, police would not specify why there was a large police presence in the area, saying only that it was an "active investigation" in the area of Lake Huron and Dashwood Road, and that there was no threat to public safety.
