Two duck hunters found dead in a private lake in Hughes County have been identified as Oklahoma City area doctors.

Authorities say the bodies of 59-year-old Dr. Rodney Miles and 51-year-old Dr. Timothy Soult were found Monday after they failed to return to their cabin on Sunday. The search focused on the lake after an all-terrain vehicle was found overturned in the water Sunday afternoon.

Hughes County Emergency Management Director John Roberts told The Oklahoman that the two men were at the lake for the opening day of duck season.

Miles specialized in family medicine and Soult in emergency medicine. Both were doctors in the Integris network.
