While this is from June 5, 2008, I figure if I missed it so did most people.

From the NY Daily News:


Wonder Woman is still fighting crime, after all these years.

Lynda Carter, 56, who played the superhero on TV, discovered the dead body of a woman floating in the Potomac River while canoeing Thursday.

The actress flagged down nearby boaters and they called rescuers, who pulled the body from the river, a spokesman for the Washington D.C. Fire Department said.

Paramedics performed CPR on the victim, but she was pronounced dead.

Carter abruptly left the private Potomac Boat Club on Water St. in northwest D.C. without commenting to reporters.

The body was discovered near the Virginia side of the river and authorities think the may have slipped and into the water while hiking.

The unidentified victim is described as a white woman, around 40-years-old, 5 foot 4, with brown, shoulder-length hair. She was wearing pearl earrings and a silver wristwatch, and had keys to a Chevrolet in her pocket.
