Police say a woman has been fatally shot in Vancouver.
A statement from Sgt. Steve Addison says police responded to a call at about 4 a.m. on Wednesday.
Addison says the woman was found in a social housing building in the Downtown Eastside and died later in hospital.
Police believe her attacker fled.
Addison says no arrests have been made and the woman has not been identified.
The slide had swept the man into a tree leaving him disoriented, hurt and hypothermic, but he was able to call a friend who contacted rescuers.
There were 14 new reported deaths Tuesday. Over the past seven days there have been a total of 78 new reported deaths.
