Search and Rescue teams have been on the scene since the crash and conducted both aerial and ground searches along the water and shoreline.

However, Sidhu and the vehicle have not yet been located, Squamish RCMP said.

The river in this area is exceptionally deep and fast-flowing due to spring runoff, making conditions hazardous, they added.

Police said that due to current water levels and the unknown location of the vehicle, recovery is not possible at this time.

They will continue to monitor conditions and reassess recovery efforts as water levels begin to recede and visibility improves.
