INDEPENDENCE, Kan. (AP) - Authorities are investigating the death of a woman found floating in a southeast Kansas lake as a homicide.

The Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office said in Facebook post that hunters found the woman Thursday about a quarter-mile south of a boat ramp at the Card Creek camping area east of Independence. Paramedics loaded her into a boat and took her to a hospital, where she was pronounced dead.

Authorities identified her Friday as 33-year-old Cindy “Pinky” Ann Eason, of Miami, Oklahoma.
