Lewisville FD said its Dive Team and Battalion Chief 1 have been dispatched for mutual aid along with the Pilot Point and Denton Fire Departments. Texas Game Wardens in Denton County and Texas State Park Police also responded.

Crews are asking boaters and visitors in the area to give dive teams and emergency vessels space to operate safely as the search continues.
