KANAB, UT - Authorities have found the body of a 21-year-old woman from Turkey who drowned in Lake Powell near the Bullfrog Marina and they're searching for a second woman.

Kane County Sheriff's Sgt. Alan Alldredge says a boater found the woman floating face down Wednesday afternoon in a popular swimming area. Alldredge says a helicopter, deputies, and park service officers are searching for another 21-year-old woman who is also missing.

Alldredge says both women are from Turkey and were working at the marina for the summer. Their names have not been released because their relatives are being notified.

Alldredge says investigators are still trying to determine what happened.
