A woman was rescued from a fast-moving river in Metro Vancouver on Saturday as a storm struck British Columbia, according to CTV News. The rescue was reported by the outlet on Saturday evening.
CTV News did not, in the material available, name the river or the woman, describe her condition, or say who carried out the rescue. The circumstances that led her into the water were also not specified.
The incident came during a storm in the province. Beyond confirming that the weather event was underway, the reporting available does not detail the storm's severity, its path, or any other effects it had on the region.
Fast-flowing water is a known hazard during heavy rain, when rivers and streams can rise and quicken in a short time. The rescue reported by CTV News places one such incident within the wider storm.
Details on the woman's condition and the identities of those involved had not been released in the reporting available. Further information on the storm's impact across British Columbia is expected as officials and local outlets report on conditions in the days ahead.
