Hann was ejected into the water and did not resurface. The boat's operator stayed in the vessel and suffered severe injuries. He was transported to a hospital. Neither occupant in the vessel was wearing a personal flotation device, investigators said.
Hann’s body was found a couple of miles from where the boat and barge collided, wildlife and fisheries said in a news release. Her body was turned over to the West Feliciana Parish Coroner's Office, which will determine a cause of death.
