Search underway for woman swept away in southern B.C.'s Similkameen River

A 43-year-old woman was swept away in the fast-moving waters of southern B.C.’s Similkameen River on Friday morning, and a search is underway to find her.

RCMP says Amy Sabean was driving a white Chevrolet Blazer along Ashnola Road near Keremeos at about 10:45 a.m. when an associate who was in a separate vehicle behind her saw her suddenly drive off the roadway and into the river.

When Sabean tried to get out of the vehicle, she was swept away.
