Police are actively looking for a 19-year-old man who went missing in the Wailevu River in Labasa during the weekend. The young man was reportedly fishing along the riverbank with his father when he lost his footing, fell into the water, and vanished. Search and rescue operations were temporarily halted yesterday because of strong currents and muddy conditions, but efforts are set to continue today. Tragically, he is feared to be the latest drowning victim in the region. As search teams prepare to resume their efforts, the community holds hope for a successful outcome.
