[QUOTE="NEFarmwife, post: 1580897, member: 26897"] Some people from the community went on the river this weekend. Current was so strong that it swept a kayaker over the spillway. Those in his party, including his wife... were struggling hard to keep from the current that ended up taking this mans life. Father of a 2 year old boy. Fireman. Our communities have been thru so much lately. They’ve been unable to locate his body and are sure it’s “tumbling” at the bottom of spillway. They’ve cut off the spillway in hopes to lower the river but expect with bloat... he should surface here within next 24 hours. They’ve called on our department to man the banks and wait for his body to surface. Meanwhile, these same men are responding to a hog unit fire that started almost 5 hours ago. One unit was destroyed. I’ve had no further updates. Just thinking about this young woman who has lost her husband and how our men and women put their lives at risk every day (emergency responders) for others. Our community needs a break. [/QUOTE]
