Rescuers in a helicopter pulled the body of the deceased from the sunken car. For this, the diver was lowered from a helicopter on a rope.
The woman who sank in her car in the freezing Niagara Falls deliberately entered the water.
Reported by the Daily Mail.
Police said the tragedy was not the result of an accident. Law enforcement officials suggest that the 60-year-old woman wanted to commit suicide. An accident was considered first, as the roads in the area were slippery due to light snowfall.

The car moved along the river towards the abyss until it got stuck 45 meters from the edge of the waterfall. Rescuers in a helicopter pulled the body of the deceased from the sunken car. For this, the diver was lowered from a helicopter on a rope. The rescue operation was dangerous due to the icy wind.
The car is almost completely flooded and is in the water: only part of the roof and the open trunk are visible.

Niagara Falls, located on the border between upstate New York and Canada, attracts both brave men trying to cheat death and suicides.
Recall that an American burned down his house in an attempt to drive out the snakes.
