VANCOUVER — A volunteer search-and-rescue team says one person is missing after a fishing boat capsized on the Fraser River near Yale, B.C. The Hope Volunteer Search and Rescue Team says it responded to a report of a capsized fishing boat and one person in the water at around 2:30 p.m. on Friday. The team says RCMP were able to pull that person to safety, who then informed them about a second person in the water. It says team members searched by jet boat, from the area where the boat was seen capsized, downriver to Hope, B.C. Kent Harrison Search and Rescue also helped with the response, and teams searched the river by boat and helicopter until sundown. The Hope volunteers say searchers were back out at 7 a.m. Saturday to search between Agassiz and Yale, but the missing person has yet to be located. This report by The Canadian Press was first published Nov. 15, 2026.
