First resident within TNRD ordered to evacuate with Guichon Creek rising
MERRITT, B.C. — One home has been evacuated in the Lower Nicola as the fast-flowing waters in Guichon Creek rise and threaten the property.
LeRoy Wagner got notified at 11:30 on Thursday night that he had to leave his home within the Guichon Creek Mobile Home Park.
“I was ready to stay, but they said I had to go,” he notes. “But when I come this morning and seeing how much it was washed out, I’m glad I did go.”
