Three people are believed to have died after Cyclone Mick left Fiji today causing damages and widespread flooding in low lying areas.
A 19-year-old boy from Ra is still missing after he was swept away by strong currents while trying to cross a flooded river.
Police spokesman Atunaisa Sokomuri said they have also yet to recover the body of a 23-year-old man from Keiyasi in Sigatoka who tried to cross the bulging Sigatoka River yesterday.
“People should be very careful and should adhere to warnings and not to try and cross flooded river as they could lose their lives,” Sokomuri told FijiLive.
Confirmed dead is a class eight student from Drala village in Nadarivatu, in the Viti Levu highlands, who was struck by a huge tree.
Two fishermen who went out fishing despite the cyclone warning are still missing near Lautoka.
