River search area expanding to Sandy Point
The search effort for a B.C man who was last seen in the South Saskatchewan River on May 31 is getting back underway on the weekend.
According to Corporal Shane Ryan with the Redcliff RCMP, the search operation will be focused on the river from Medicine Hat to Sandy Point Park, close to the Saskatchewan border.
Ryan also said the time frame for the man’s body to begin floating downstream has passed, which would expand the search area further down the river.
