LANGLEY (NEWS 1130) – An underwater recovery team is resuming the search for a man who fell off a barge into the Fraser River last night.
The 72-year-old Langley man was reported to have fallen into the water just after nine o’clock on Monday.
Family and friends searched for the man before police and the marine unit arrived at the wharf at 88th Avenue and 252nd Street.
The search was called off due to darkness last night. Police say the man couldn’t swim.
