According to her, the man fell into the flooded Jankovice stream in Jankovice in the Uherskohradišť region while cleaning up debris near the house.
“The witness who reported the incident stated that he saw him fall into the turbulent water, then resurface and then be swallowed by the water. Due to the situation, he had no chance to help the man,” said the spokeswoman.
According to her, the police are still on the spot and are searching for the man, walking along the riverbed. “However, the stream is very flooded, there is a strong current in it, which could have dragged the man far,” added Kyšnerová, adding that due to the situation on the stream, even divers cannot be called.
