WALESKA, Ga. – Police are investigating how a woman died after her body was pulled from a north Georgia lake.

Cherokee County deputies were called to Lake Arrowhead shortly before 8 p.m. Monday after a boater spotted the body floating in the water.

The woman was identified as 70-year-old Cindy Naterman of Waleska.
