Police said Friday that a young person was killed the night before when they were swept away by a flash-flood in a Wolfville, N.S. park

RCMP said they got a call about the youth being pulled into a flooded ditch at 7:30 p.m., and a regional emergency management co-ordinator says the province’s Emergency Management Office issued alerts about flash floods in the region about an hour later.
