Body recovered Sunday in Cottonwood Cove at Lake Mohave

The body of an adult male was recovered Sunday from Lake Mohave in the area where a North Las Vegas man went missing two weeks ago.

The Lake Mead National Recreation Area received a call about 6 a.m. Sunday from a park visitor who reported seeing a body floating near Cottonwood Cove.

Witnesses said Donald Soun, 23, disappeared underwater Aug. 4 about a mile north of Cottonwood Cove after he went for a swim. He was not wearing a lifejacket.

The National Park Service, Las Vegas Police Search and Rescue and Nevada Department of Wildlife conducted searches for the missing man.

The Clark County coroner will release the identity of the man.
