(KMZA)--An investigation has been launched after a stolen vehicle was recovered from a Pottawatomie County lake Thursday.
According to a release from the Pottawatomie County Sheriff's Office, the Sheriff's Office received a call shortly after 4:15 Thursday afternoon regarding a vehicle submerged in the water at the Pottawatomie County Cross Creek Lake about 8 miles south of Havensville.
The reporting party was unsure how long the vehicle had been in the water.
First responders arrived on scene and could see the top of a vehicle about 15-20 yards from the boat ramp.
The release says additional resources were requested to aid in the recovery of the vehicle because there was no safe way to access the vehicle.
The Geary County Sheriff''s Office/Junction City Fire Department Dive team responded to the area. The release says the Dive Team was able to determine that the vehicle was unoccupied and were able to attach a tow line so that the wrecker could pull the vehicle out of the lake.
Once the vehicle was removed from the lake, it was determined that it was stolen out of Shawnee County.
Anyone with information is asked to contact Captain Tyler Garver at the Pottawatomie County Sheriff's Office at 785-457-3353 or leave a tip at ptsheriff.com.
