Kaya Firth, a English student, died and her boyfriend, Zach Sutherland, a commerce major, is missing according to a statement from the University of Guelph.

The discovery was made in Caledon near the Terra Cotta area, just north of Halton Hills and Georgetown and a little west of Brampton.

Police closed off an area of King Street between Winston Churchill Boulevard and Heritage Road as they continue their search.

The call came in just before 3pm Sunday afternoon, shortly after emergency crews recovered the body of a woman. The search for a male kayaker is still ongoing.

OPP helicopters, K-9 and patrol officers were seen searching the area Sunday and police say more resources will be deployed Monday including an underwater search and recovery team.
