Driver alive after 4 days in snow
TIMES WIRE REPORTS
A Canadian woman who went missing during a blizzard has been found alive, buried in 23 inches of snow four days after her sport utility vehicle got stuck in a snowy field.
A police search dog found her, a few hundred yards from her vehicle with just her face and neckline above the snow. Police said the snow’s insulating effect kept her alive.
Overnight temperatures dipped as low as 2 degrees during the four days the 55-year-old Ancaster woman was missing. She may lose some extremities to frostbite.
