While the man was rescued by bystanders, Kamala could not be immediately found. She was found later under a log as she had been swept away by the water current. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) was carried out until the first responders arrived at the scene. She was shifted to Sweetwater Hospital, where she was brought dead. Kamala reportedly belonged from Krishna district and is said to have gone to the US a few years ago to pursue her higher education, following which she got a job and began working in Ohio. Her final rites may be conducted back in India.
