A group of people were spending time at the Ungerman Park cliffs when one person failed to surface after jumping in the water. He was pulled from the water and transported to the Muskoka Wharf by a couple who were boating nearby. Unfortunately, life-saving efforts were unsuccessful, and the 28-year-old male from Brampton did not survive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Police are reminding members of the public about the dangers associated with water, always exercise caution and consider wearing a personal flotation device or lifejacket as a precaution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>From the Bracebridge OPP<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n<h5 style=\"text-align: center;\">Don\u2019t miss out on Doppler!<\/h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Sign up <a href=\"https:\/\/doppleronline.ca\/huntsville\/dont-miss-out-on-doppler\/\"><u>here<\/u><\/a> to receive our email digest with links to our most recent stories.<br \/>\nLocal news in your inbox so you don&#8217;t miss anything!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a style=\"background: #5cb85c url('https:\/\/d1iczxrky3cnb2.cloudfront.net\/red_logo.png') no-repeat 37px; color: #fff; text-decoration: none; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; display: inline-block; font-size: 16px; padding: 15px 38px; padding-left: 75px; -webkit-border-radius: 2px; -moz-border-radius: 2px; border-radius: 2px; box-shadow: 0 1px 0 0 #1f5a89; text-shadow: 0 1px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.3);\" href=\"https:\/\/donorbox.org\/support-huntsville-doppler\">Click here to support local news<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><broadstreet-zone zone-id=\"45657\" keywords=\"\" soft-keywords=\"true\" zone-alias=\"\"><\/broadstreet-zone>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Bracebridge Detachment of the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) is investigating a drowning in Gravenhurst.
