Ontario man rescued from cave after 12-hour weekend ordeal

A man is in hospital after spending close to 12 hours trapped in a narrow rock crevice in a conservation park north of Toronto.

Clearview Fire and Emergency Services announced on Sunday morning that 30-year-old Seth Rowe was extricated from the cavern after working on freeing the man for more than 12 hours.

According to Barrie fire officials, a call came in around 8:30 p.m., regarding a man who was wedged between the rocks at a conservation area in Singhampton.

“At this point it looks like a good news story, it was a unified command with all of our partners, Simcoe County EMS, Barrie fire, Toronto fire; it all gelled. It all came together and I am happy to say it was a happy ending,” says Clearview Fire Chief Colin Shewell.
