Man’s body recovered from Elbow Falls

BRAGG CREEK- The body of a 33-year-old Calgary man has been found in Elbow Falls, southwest of Bragg Creek.

RCMP say Abdul Quadir Mohammed and his family were visiting the area on Saturday, and they had ventured beyond a protective barrier to take photographs.

A member of the family lost their footing and were in danger of falling when Mohammed tried to grab the person and lost his own footing and fell into the churning water below.

Relatives tried to rescue him but were unable to reach him.
