Rapid River, Rescue Calls in Saskatoon | Vancouver News
Description
Saskatoon’s South Saskatchewan River is flowing faster than normal, knocking safety buoys loose and creating dangerous conditions — officials are urging everyone, including pets, to stay away from the banks. Over the weekend, the Saskatoon Fire Department responded to two water rescues: one involving a drifting pontoon boat and another of a person stranded on Yorath Island — thankfully, no injuries occurred. The RCMP used a drone to locate the stranded individual, and both incidents are now under investigation. The city is monitoring the situation closely, reminding the public to call 911 if they see someone in trouble and to stay calm and shed heavy clothing if you fall in.
