Authorities on Sunday continued searching for an Arizona woman who went missing after she was swept away by floodwaters in Utah's Zion National Park.

National Park Service officials said rangers and members of the Zion search and rescue team were in the Virgin River area Sunday searching for Jetal Agnihotri, 29, of Tucson.

They said Agnihotri was among several hikers who were swept off their feet Friday afternoon by rushing water in The Narrows near the Temple of Sinawava in Zion National Park, which is in southern Utah near the Arizona border.

NPS said more than 20 Zion search and rescue team members were working in and near the Virgin River to search for Agnihotri. NPS did not have new updates as of Sunday afternoon when reached by Fox News Digital.
