May 23, 2023 - Fresno County Sheriff's Office officials report that Monday morning, CAL FIRE/Fresno County Fire personnel on a boat saw the boy beneath the water caught against a tree. A firefighter was deployed into the water and recovered the body. He was found 1.75 miles downstream from where he initially went in the water on Sunday. In comparison, his sister was found one-fifth of a mile down from where they went in.
We had about 40 Search and Rescue personnel, including members of Cal Fire - Fresno County and City of Fresno firefighters assisting. We utilized boats on the river, a remote controlled vehicle in the water, drones and our helicopter in the air.
