UPDATE 4:45pm 6/14/20 - Sebastian
Rodriguez Castro Search
River levels have been rising due
to warm temperatures and increased runoff, hindering search efforts. Greater
Eagle Fire Protection District has continued to conduct land and water searches
as call volume allows, while other resources (both humans and dogs) were given
a much needed rest after pushing hard for 8 days.
Water operations have focused on a
few specific areas, some of which are still very dangerous to search due to
water levels. A few of these spots will require better water conditions before
they can be searched safely
Numerous counties reported
water-related incidents over the weekend, so search and rescue groups are being
stretched thin. Please follow safety rules around the water, as unexpected
weather can change conditions without warning.
Helicopters will search the area early
tomorrow morning. Please do not fly drones in the area, as it will prevent
aerial operations from taking place.
