Tucson resident Jetal Agnihotri, 29, was found in the Virgin River and later pronounced dead by a medical examiner on Monday.

Zion National Park ended their search for Tucson resident Jetal Agnihotri, 29, after she was found in the Virgin River near the Court of the Patriarchs and later pronounced dead by a medical examiner on Monday.

According to the park service, the search for Agnihotri began Friday after the agency received reports that multiple hikers were swept off their feet by a flash flood in the Narrows near the Temple of Sinawava at Zion National Park. Agnihotri's family contacted the National Park Service late Friday evening claiming that she was overdue from a trip to the Narrows, the service said.

"Our deepest sympathy goes out to the friends and family of Jetal Agnihotri," said Jeff Bradybaugh, superintendent at Zion National Park.More than 170 responders contributed to search and rescue operations during a four-day period.
