The remains of three men have been recovered from a mudslide near Lillooet, B.C., with one individual still missing, following search efforts conducted this week, as reported by the RCMP.
On Wednesday, one deceased person was found, while two more bodies were discovered on Thursday, according to B.C. Chief Coroner Lisa Lapointe in a written statement issued on Saturday.
Search efforts for a fourth man who has been reported missing continued on Friday; however, these efforts were unsuccessful, she remarked.
Furthermore, on Monday, the body of a woman was retrieved from the site of the slide, representing the first confirmed fatality due to the severe flooding and landslides that have affected the southern part of the province, which is partly attributed to the heavy rainfall experienced last weekend.
