Nothing was found Wednesday during a ground search for a Bathurst teenager who disappeared more than a week ago.
Police and search and rescue workers combed an area around a quarry near the intersection of St. Anne Street and Route 11, Luc Foulem, spokesperson for the City of Bathurst, said in an interview.
As of about 4 p.m., nothing had been found that would lead to the discovery of Madison Roy-Boudreau, who was last seen getting into a grey pickup truck in the city on the morning of May 11.
New Brunswick has seen its fair share of emergencies in recent years between historic flooding, a global pandemic, and devastating ice storms. May 2nd.
Flood risk accompanies spring s arrival for these provinces

mercredi, 20 mars 2019 à 14:34 - Spring has arrived and so have warmer temperatures. Snow is beginning to melt, rivers are starting to rush and the threat for flooding is here in Canada.
Residents across southern Ontario have already been dealing with early season flooding along the Humber River through the Caledon area after snowmelt, ice jams and rain caused rivers to burst their banks last Friday. Some 200 residents were forced to evacuate temporarily, but drier and cooler weather conditions have since allowed floodwaters to recede and evacuees are now home.
While the area will be monitored for more flooding through the season, below is a look at what other parts of the country are also at risk for spring flooding.
For this year, the snow pack in the northern part of the province provides a positive sign.
Downey said there s about 10.9 centimetres of water equivalent in the snow pack, whereas the 20-year average for this time of year is 15.5 centimetres. That s obviously good. You d rather see it below in terms of potential flooding, but again, it matters how quickly does it melt.
Markus Harvey, a Maugerville, N.B., resident who weathered the floods of 2018 and 2019 in one of the hardest hit parts of the province, said he s optimistic for this year. Initial thoughts right now are things are looking good, he said.
