River pathway flooding near the zoo

The fire department is out with a warning to anyone cycling or walking along the Bow River near the Calgary Zoo.

An ice jam near the Baines Bridge forced four cyclists to abandon their bikes in waist-high water along the pathway Wednesday.

Officials say the water levels continue to rise, and the combination of ice, current and frigid water could be deadly.

Everyone is advised to avoid the area until further notice.
