UPDATE: Ongoing Investigation - South Saskatchewan River

​

The Saskatoon Police Service is sharing more information relating to the ongoing investigation following reports of a jet ski rider in distress near the weir on the South Saskatchewan River on Saturday

On June 20, 2026 at 4:46 p.m., police received numerous calls regarding a jet ski rider in distress near the weir on the South Saskatchewan River at 33rd Street East and Spadina Crescent.

The Saskatoon Fire Department water rescue crews responded utilizing a specialized vessel designed for weir rescue operations. Members of the Saskatoon Police Service Aerial Support Unit, Forensic Identification Section, Missing Person Unit, and Tactical Support Unit also assisted Saskatoon Fire in the response. Aerial drones, a fixed wing aircraft, and watercraft were used to search the river and riverbanks for the operator.

**Through investigation the operator of the jet ski has been identified as 32-year-old Adan Vargas Salvador visiting from Mexico. Family have requested that his photograph and name be released.**

Investigators with the Saskatoon Police Service are in contact with family, and the search for Adan Salvador’s body continues along the South Saskatchewan River.

The Saskatoon Police Service and Saskatoon Fire Department are reminding residents of the dangers on and around the river. Given current increased water levels and speed, river conditions are constantly changing and could have additional hazards. We would like to remind the public that the weir must never be approached and should only be viewed from designated areas along Spadina Crescent East.

Several Sask. ferries closed due to water levels

Of the 13 ferries that operate in Saskatchewan, only three can take full loads, another four can take light loads, and four are closed due to high water levels.

​

The Wollaston Lake barge ferry is closed for the season.

​

Drivers attempting to use ferries at Hague, Weldon, Lancer and Estuary will find themselves out of luck, as those crossings are not operational at the moment.
