Young Navajo Nation man with dance group passes in Colorado
Posted: Wednesday, August 3, 2011
A 19-year-old member of the Navajo Nation was found dead on the Southern Ute Reservation in Colorado.
Janathan Yazzie was at Lake Capote with a Native dance group when he went missing on July 24.
He was found three days later although the autopsy has failed to determine the cause of death because his body was in the water for so long.
Authorities will wait for a toxicology report although they don't believe alcohol or narcotics were involved.
Yazzie was from the Utah portion of the Navajo Nation.
