A search team has converged near Pasadena Road in Kelowna to look for someone that may have been swept away by the fast-moving Mission Creek.

Central Okanagan Search and Rescue (COSAR) has been called to the scene to investigate.

Rescue dogs may be brought in by both Kelowna RCMP and COSAR, though Tresnich said that they are currently more focused on searching by air and the sides of the creek.

COSAR has their helicopter assisting, while the RCMP are using a drone to search the area.

Part of the pedestrian path behind the 1300-block of Pasadena Road has been blocked off by caution tape.

The City of Kelowna was put in a state of emergency earlier in the day due to flooding from the local waterways, chiefly Mission Creek.
