Osage County authorities are investigating a drowning at Melvern Lake Sunday.

A news release from the department says deputies received a 911 call reporting a possible drowning near the Couer D'Alene swim beach shortly before 4:15 p.m. Deputies responded, as did numerous other departments including the Kansas Department of Wildlife, Parks and Tourism, Melvern Lake Corps of Engineers, Osage County Fire District No. 3, Osage County EMS and Coffey County Water Rescue. A body was recovered from the swim beach area after better than four hours of searching.

Deputies say they will release more information, including the victim's name, Tuesday. KVOE will keep you updated.
