English teenager drowns in ski resort swimming pool The girl, identified as 19-year-old Lucy Sallis, from Bognor Regis in Sussex, drowned after getting into the pool following a visit to a nightclub, the resort's director said. Miss Sallis, who had been working in the kitchen at La Belle Aurore hotel in the resort, reportedly scaled a six foot fence to gain access to the pool. When friends realised she had not resurfaced, they found her under a protective sheet covering part of the pool. A police spokesman said: "A friend saw her enter the water. But she did not return to the surface of the pool. She was found under the protective pool covering. We believe it was an accident at this stage. An investigation is under way therefore we cannot give further details. Fabrice Hurth, director of the tourist office, said: "It probably was just a silly, bad joke that young people do. But it ended so tragically. A post mortem is due to be carried out today.
