It happened off Highway 38 at the Thurman Flats Picnic Area.
Two children died Tuesday after entering fast-moving water in a creek in the San Bernardino Mountains and being swept downstream, the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department said.
The sheriff’s statement said the mother was attending to her son when the daughter was taken down the stream. After she could not find her daughter, the mother returned to find her son was also missing and presumed to be also downstream, according to Tuesday’s release. Authorities found the girl at around 4:39 p.m. and the boy at around 5:04 p.m. near the creek’s edge. They were recovered by a San Bernardino County Fire swift-water rescue team.
