PORTNEUF−SUR−MER—Provincial police say four children whose bodies were found on the shore of the St. Lawrence River near a village in northeastern Quebec earlier today have died.

Police say the dead were among a group of 11 people who were fishing for capelin near the shore when they were caught in the tide in Portneuf−sur−Mer, a small village about 550 kilometres northeast of Montreal.
