Buckland Fire & Rescue said they were called to the location on Highway 2 north of Prince Albert yesterday, just before 10:30 am.

Three vehicles responded with seven firefighters and they found an SUV in a swamp when they got there.

After speaking with RCMP, Fire Command determined that Fire/Rescue services were not required and stood down the other two responding units.
