One person dead following drowning incident in Virginia

VIRGINIA — The Louisa County Sheriff’s Office is investigating the death of a 19-year-old woman who drowned at Lake Anna on Saturday night.

Deputies were called around 10:45 p.m. on Aug. 9 to Sandy Point Drive in Bumpass for a reported drowning.

Witnesses told authorities that Sally Bedell, of Arlington, had jumped from a structure into the water, resurfaced, and then went missing.

The incident remains under investigation. Anyone with information is asked to contact the Louisa County Sheriff’s Office CID Unit at 540-967-1234.
