Omaha area television news outlets are reporting water rescue crews were called to Carter Lake early this morning, to search for a vehicle that may have entered the west side of the lake. Authorities report Omaha Police officers saw headlights suddenly vanish near the lake sometime around 4:30-a.m. When they approached the area off Carter Lake Shore Drive, police didn’t find a vehicle, but they did find tire tracks leading up to the lake. No one actually saw a vehicle actually go into the water, and it’s not clear if a vehicle is in the lake, but crews are searching the area as if that was the case.

More information will be released if it becomes available.
