The Okotoks RCMP have released a correction to their statement regarding the collision Wednesday afternoon on Dunbow Road. 

As of 6:09 p.m. Okotoks RCMP are reporting their original statement was incorrect. The correct information is that a male was found at the scene in critical condition and transported by ambulance to a hospital in Calgary.

Okotoks RCMP say at around 2:55 p.m. the car drove into the median on the Dunbow bridge, which caused the vehicle to be launched into the river below.

Traffic on both southbound and northbound Deerfoot Trail was down to one lane while emergency crews dealt with the crash.
