ATCEMS said it received a report just before 7 p.m. about a swimmer who hadn’t resurfaced.

About an hour later, ATCEMS posted an update on X that said first responders couldn’t find the swimmer and the rescue was shifting to a recovery.

Multiple units from ATCEMS, the Austin Fire Department and Travis County Starflight are at the scene.
