One of the teenagers who was removed from the water was conscious and alert, and a search is ongoing for the second teenager.

John McLean, one of the men who went into the water to save the teenager, said he was reading a newspaper when he heard screams.

"Kids are in the water drowning. I responded with another gentleman. We got the one child out. The other one was bobbing. We went out after him after we got the one out," McLean said.
