- Share via
One person was killed and a second was missing after a large rock slab apparently broke off a sandstone arch at Lake Powell and smashed onto a boat.
The National Park Service said the slab, approximately 250 square feet in size, fell onto the bow of the boat, capsizing it.
Rangers recovered the body of a woman but divers had been unable to find the second person. No further details were immediately available.
