Thai officials find a body on a beach in Phuket Thursday while conducting a search for missing American student Joshua Shane.

A rescue team has been conducting a search for nearly two days for the 21-year-old Arizona State University student who disappeared while swimming with other four friends on the night of June 12.

The body was found Thursday morning, not far from the place where Joshua Shane was last seen.

Hospital officials told Reuters that they could not immediately confirm that the body was Joshua Shane's due to its condition.
