Tragedy strikes California river: Two children lost in dangerous conditions.

Two children, an 8-year-old girl and her 4-year-old brother, died after being swept away by the Kings River in central California during what authorities call extraordinarily dangerous conditions. The river has been closed since mid-March to recreational users due to violent storms and melting snow pushing water levels up and creating dangerous conditions. The children were not wearing life jackets, and authorities are reminding people of the power of water and the importance of water safety.

An 8-year-old girl died and her 4-year-old brother is missing after being swept away in the Kings River in California, which was closed for recreational use due to hazardous spring weather conditions. The siblings, their mother, and her friend entered the water off the shore about a mile from Pine Flat Dam, and the current swept the children downstream. The body of the missing girl was found less than an hour into the search. The incident comes as authorities in Placer County were searching for two people swept away by the American River.

Tragedy Strikes as Two Children Go Missing in Kings River.

An 8-year-old girl was found dead and a 4-year-old boy is still missing after being swept away by the Kings River in Fresno County. Authorities have warned people to exercise caution along rivers due to high water levels and stronger flows creating dangerous conditions. Last week, the Placer County Sheriff's Office issued a statement urging people to be "river-wise" as the water is colder, stronger, and higher due to last winter's heavy snowpack melting down into the rivers.
