NORTH TEXAS (CBSDFW.COM) - Late Sunday night, dive teams were in the waters of Eagle Mountain Lake, searching for a person who was ejected after a boat wrecked.

Game wardens with the Texas Parks and Parks and Wildlife Department say two people were thrown after a speedboat hit something, went up into the air, and crashed back into the water upside-down.

A second person was also thrown into the water but was located and transported by air ambulance to John Peter Smith Hospital in Fort Worth. That person's condition is unknown.

Search crews were able to use sonar to find the sunken boat, but as of 10:00 p.m. still has not located the missing boater. An active search continues.
