A Department of Natural Resources boat overturned this morning in Grand Lake and an officer ended up in the water.
RCMP officers from Minto and Oromocto responded to the scene along with other emergency personnel who launched a small boat and brought the officer to shore where paramedics were waiting for him.
He was taken to hospital for treatment for hypothermia because he was in the water for about 45 minutes.
The officer was wearing his safety gear and a life jacket and at this time, it's not known why his boat overturned.
