    HOUSTON, B.C. — Police and search and rescue volunteers are continuing to look for a man two days after his truck was found in a British Columbia river.
     
    RCMP Cpl. Dave Tyreman says that early Tuesday morning, a passerby spotted the vehicle in the water near the northern Interior community of Houston.
     
    He says police learned the vehicle left the forest service road, rolled down a steep embankment and ended up in the river.
     
    The female passenger was rescued by first responders but the male driver is still missing.
     
    Tyreman says alcohol is believed to be a factor in the accident.
     
    No names have been released.
