More than $8K raised in fundraiser for Harman Singh Sandhu who died in Lynn Canyon
Friends and family of the man who died cliff jumping in Lynn Canyon a week ago are fundraising to have his body returned to his home country.First responders pulled Sandhu from the water after he had been submerged for at least 20 minutes. Paramedics treated him at the scene before North Shore Rescue hoisted him from the canyon via helicopter, where he was flown to a waiting ambulance.
The page organizers said the funds raised will aid in transporting Sandhu’s body back to India, where his family awaits to perform his last rites. A few days after the fatal fall District of North Vancouver Fire and Rescue Services members were called to rescue a cliff jumping intoxicated man in his 20s, and a few days later to a hiker who had suffered a twisted ankle. On July 6, two hopeful cliff jumpers were caught by park rangers attempting to cut down a tree in an unauthorized area near the falls.
Ferguson urged anyone who is going into the parks to abide by the posted signs or bring their questions to park rangers.
