Body of Arizona woman found three days after Grand Canyon flash flood

Park officials say Chenoa Nickerson, 33, who wasn't wearing a life vest, was swept into Havasu Creek last week

The body of a woman has been discovered three days after she was swept up in a flash flood that required the rescue of more than 100 people near the Grand Canyon in Arizona, officials have said.

The body of Chenoa Nickerson, 33, was discovered by a commercial river boat on the Colorado River about 20 miles (30 km) downstream of where she went missing on Thursday, the US National Park Service said in a statement.
