A 15-year-old Kamloops girl is dead after a hiking accident in B-C's Southern Interior.
Police say it happened Sunday evening about 30 kilometres southeast of Revelstoke.
They say the girl lost her footing on some slippery rocks and fell into Akolkolex Falls.
The girl's stepfather dove into the falls to try and rescue her and was later taken to hospital with non-life-threatening injuries while her body was discovered on Monday.
The suspect was arrested shortly after noon near Hwy 1 on the Clearbook Rd exit in Abbotsford. The two victims were transported by ambulance to a local area hospital. Both have non-life threatening injuries.
