Naya Rivera: Body Found At Search Site For Missing ‘Glee’ Actress

A body has been found at the site where authorities were searching for missing “Glee” actress Naya Rivera, the Ventura, California, County Sheriff’s office said on Twitter on Monday.

Authorities said last week that they had presumed Rivera had drowned after renting a boat on Lake Piru near Los Angeles with her four-year-old son, Josey, who was found unharmed.

Rivera’s son, discovered alone and sleeping in a drifting boat on Wednesday, told authorities he and his mother had both gone swimming but his mother never returned.

Rivera’s son said the two had been swimming, but Rivera never returned, according to Capt. Eric Buschow.

The boy was wearing a life vest and another adult life vest was found on the boat, he said.

Lake Piru is a recreational reservoir about 50 miles north of downtown Los Angeles.

The sheriff’s office said it would hold a news conference on Monday afternoon.

A body has been found at Lake Piru this morning. The recovery is in progress. There will be a news conference at 2 pm at the lake
