A missing woman was discovered alive after a fisherman saw her Jeep submerged in an East Texas lake, authorities said.
The fisherman spotted the vehicle Friday morning near a boat ramp in Lake o’ the Pines, 70 miles northwest of Shreveport, Louisiana, and reported it to authorities, the Marion County Sheriff’s Office said in a release.
As deputies and a rescue service prepared to pull the vehicle out of the water, they saw a woman inside moving around, the sheriff’s office said.
The woman, who was not publicly identified, was rescued and taken to a local hospital.
Footage released by the sheriff’s office showed two men pulling someone out of the water and into a small boat. A small section of the Jeep’s roof is visible above the water.
Authorities later determined that the woman had been reported missing by police in nearby Longview, Texas, the sheriff’s office said.
Additional details about the incident were not immediately available.
