One person was hospitalized after a truck entered Longview Lake Friday night, according to the Kansas City Fire Department.
At approximately 9:40 p.m. on Friday, May 8, the agency received 911 calls reporting a vehicle in the water at Longview Lake in south Kansas City, near Grandview and Lee’s Summit, according to Riley Nolan, battalion chief and spokesperson for the fire department.
Bystander boaters rescued a man, who was on the boat dock when the fire department arrived at the lake’s marina, Nolan said. KCFD staff gave the man emergency medical care and transported him to the hospital, according to KCFD reports. Nolan did not have an update on the victim’s condition. Because the man was nonverbal, crews looked for other possible victims, but none were found.
Crews located the vehicle 100 feet from shore in 25 feet deep water, Nolan said…
