Body Search & Recovery Operation In Swift Water

Body Search & Recovery Operation In Swift Water

This video is from the Point of View of the Public Safety Diver / Under Water Criminal Investigator.

Recently, our Public Safety Dive Team was asked to assist with the search for a missing persons in a local river in the mountains. Due to the environmental conditions of the river, a basic operation became an extensive one, utilizing our dive team for over 2 days. The current of the water, which averaged 2 knots to 5 knots made it difficult for our Public Safety Divers and Under Water Criminal Investigators to do a thorough search of the area. High lines were ran to stabilize the vessel so that operations could be ran from the boat vs off the shore. After a very extensive search, including the use of side scan sonar, the victim was not found. Approximately 2 weeks after the search, the victim was located over a mile away from the area that the victim was last seen in. Through the coordination of multiple Public Safety Organizations, all rescuers were safe. Public Safety Diving and Under Water Criminal Investigations is a specialized field of diving and takes many hours of training to master. Our Public Safety Divers are also Public Servants in our local communities including, Police, Fire, EMS, Rescue, and Military.
