Nova Scotia RCMP say they have found the bodies of two children missing since Saturday when torrential floodwaters washed the vehicle they were in off a road.
In a news conference Tuesday, police said a child’s body was found in the morning, and they confirmed that human remains found Monday on a shoreline in a nearby county were those of the second missing child.
Premier Tim Houston said the province’s grief is growing as the toll from the flooding mounts. On Monday, the RCMP had announced that the body of a 52-year-old man from Windsor, N.S. — who was in another, nearby vehicle — had been found. Search teams are still looking for a fourth missing person, a youth under 18 who was travelling with the 52-year-old man.
