PAUPACK TOWNSHIP, WAYNE COUNTY - The body of a missing woman has been found in Wayne County. State Police say Holly Ann Steffens, 28, disappeared Monday morning near Lake Wallenpaupack.

Dive teams found her body just before 1:00 PM in the lake after searching for more than three hours. She was found on the Paupack Township, Wayne County, side. That's just west of the PPL Environmental Center near Route 590. Steffens was first reported missing Monday morning.

"Through our investigation, we received information that she was seen in this area. She was in the area. We started a search of the water and the wooded area for her about 9:30 this morning," Trooper Bill Satkowski said.

Steffens lived in Wayne County. Her last known address was on Penn Avenue in Hawley. She was pronounced dead at the scene.

Investigators won't say if there are any suspicious circumstances surrounding her death.

"It's an ongoing investigation. It's a death investigation at this point. We're going to try and determine through an autopsy how she died," Trooper Satkowski said.

State Police would also not comment on the circumstances of how Steffens went missing. They would not say if she was alone or with family/friends at the time.

"Until the investigation is more complete, we're going to reserve comment on that," Trooper Satkowski said.
