Body found after search for woman swept away by flood
Police have found the body of a woman swept away after a car tried to drive through floodwaters in a popular wine region. The 26-year-old was a passenger in a car which became stranded in Black Creek in Rothbury, in the NSW Hunter Valley, on Saturday evening. Emergency services were able to save a 27-year-old woman believed to have been driving the car, but could not find the younger woman. A multi-agency search made the grim discovery on Wednesday, locating the body believed to be that of the missing woman. Officers were told the duo had attempted to drive a Mini SUV through floodwaters before it became stuck. We're continuing to support communities affected by flooding, with more than 2,500 incidents across NSW. Over 2,300 volunteers are currently on the ground, working closely with flood-impacted communities across the New England, MNC and Hunter regions. — NSW SES (@NSWSES) August 5, 2025 The flooding was triggered by heavy rain and unprecedented snow that wreaked havoc across NSW over the weekend. Tens of thousands of people spent Saturday night without power as between 50 and 100mm of rain drenched parts of the mid-north coast and northern Hunter. The NSW State Emergency Service had responded to more than 2500 incidents including 39 flood rescues by Wednesday morning. One of those rescues was of a 40-year-old man stuck in a tree who was later swept into Black Creek. He was taken to a hospital for a medical check.
