RCMP say the bodies of three men, ages 18, 19 and 20, and a 17-year-old girl were pulled from a submerged vehicle near Tracadie-Sheila around 3 pm.
The Mounties say the car lost control while driving up a hill on an icy road and slipped off the road and into the Tracadie River.
The names of the victims, who are all from surrounding communities outside Tracadie-Sheila and Lameque, have not been released.
