Emergency crews were called out to Carter Lake early Tuesday morning after an SUV went into the water.
Omaha Fire and Water Rescue crews were called to the scene around 4:30 when a police officer reported seeing a car drive by and then the tail lights seemed to disappear. When the officer turned around, they found fresh tire tracks leading up to the water.
A rescue boat was launched along Carter Lake Shore Drive, along the west side of the lake. Crews used sonar to search the lake and a buoy marker was placed at a section of the lake where dive teams entered the water.
A tow truck pulled an SUV from the lake just after 8:00. Online records show the SUV was reported stolen. An investigation is underway.
