The following press release was published by the U.S. Department of the Interior, National Park Service on Aug. 8, 2018. It is reproduced in full below.

After being alerted to a deceased person seen by park visitors on July 29, US Park Rangers of Lake Mead National Recreation Area located a man’s body along the shoreline near the Callville Bay Marina in the park.
