The bodies of three men have been found in the Duffy Lake area of British Columbia, bringing the confirmed death toll to four after historic flooding in the southern part of the province.
Over the past two days, RCMP and rescue teams have been trying to locate four people in the Duffy Lake area, where a major landslide has occurred.
“These three men are among those whose disappearance we confirmed earlier this week,” Staff Sergeant Janelle Shoihet said in a statement.
The RCMP say they have continued their search for a fourth man, but the weather conditions and the state of the premises made it difficult to find them. Sergeant Shoihet said the search at Duffy Lake is on hold for now.
A woman’s body was found in a mudslide on Route 99 near Lillooet on Tuesday.
