Three men were rescued on the Mantario Trail in eastern Manitoba over the weekend, after setting off on what was supposed to be a three-day hike, RCMP say. The hikers started their journey on Friday evening and planned to finish on Monday, Mounties said in a news release on Wednesday. But on their second evening, the men started showing signs of severe heatstroke and called for help. Much of southern Manitoba was under a heat warning on Friday and Saturday, with temperatures climbing into the 30s. All three hikers were taken to Lac du Bonnet, where they were treated by emergency medical services.
