06/22/2003: "Man killed, woman missing in swift waters"
At least one person who sought refuge from Saturday's heat in area streams found himself overwhelmed by swift icy waters.
A 23-year-old man was killed when he decided to take a dip in the South St. Vrain River in Boulder County. The man's mother, girlfriend and stepfather watched as he swam in a relatively calm pool between two rocks. But the family became concerned by the rushing waters.
