An American Airlines flight attendant vanished while snorkelling off South Florida before her body was pulled from the surf hours later by stunned fishermen. Investigators now believe Kellie Melinda Williams was fatally struck by a boat whose operator never stopped.
The death of the 31-year-old has triggered an active investigation stretching across the waters near Dania Beach and Hollywood Beach, with Florida wildlife officers searching for the vessel involved and appealing for witnesses to come forward.
