TAMPA, Fla. (WFLA) — An 18-year-old from Titusville was identified as the passenger aboard a Carnival cruise ship who died over the weekend, ABC News reported.
Authorities were investigating the death of a passenger on the Carnival Horizon cruise ship that returned to Miami on Saturday.
Anna Kepner was identified as the 18-year-old who died on the cruise ship.
Kepner was a senior at Temple Christian School in Titusville.
“You were a bright, kind-hearted young woman whose presence brought warmth and energy into the classroom. Your curiosity, your gentle spirit, and the way you cared for those around you made a lasting impression on me and on everyone who knew you,” Temple High School said in a post on Facebook.
Carnival Cruise Line is working with the FBI Miami office to investigate the incident.
“Our focus is on supporting the family of our guest and cooperating with the FBI,” Carnival Cruise Line said in a statement.
James Marshall, an FBI Miami spokesman, said the office responded to the scene, but did not have any further information.
Details surrounding her death have not been released.
