While in route communications advised that there was a possible baby that had drowned near the Esplanade. Rescue Squad 15 and Ambulance 159 responded to the Coldstream beach and deployed on foot to the Esplanade the remainder of the units responded to the Nightingale beach. Boat 15 was launched to begin a search of the area. Boat 15 was able to make contact with the investigative group (RS15) and determined that a deceased cat is what the caller saw in the lake. The assignment was quickly scaled back to company 15 units only. Boat 15’s crew removed the deceased cat from the water and crews return to service within 30 minutes.

Wow! This shows that you have to look before you leap!
And I didn't know so many people needed to be dispatched to deal with a drowning...
