After leaving a house party and consuming beers, three individuals boarded a canoe that was behind the house. The occupants on board the canoe were not wearing  PFD's and paddled  up the Housatonic River. One individual, not the victim, stood up on the canoe which caused it to capsize. All occupants entered the river and were able to swim to shore. The victim was transported by ambulance to Griffin Hospital and treated for hypothermia.
