Emergency crews are searching a Staffordshire lake after a teenager fell in and has not been seen since.
A large number of emergency services are currently at Rudyard Lake near Leek following reports that three people fell in the water shortly after 9.30pm on Saturday.
Specialist rescue crews went to the scene in Lake Road, Rudyard, after three males, believed to be about 17 years old, were spotted in the water.
Staffordshire Police said two of them managed to get out and were given check-ups by paramedics from the West Midlands Ambulance Service before both were taken to hospital.
Search teams are currently in the area alongside colleagues from Staffordshire Fire and Rescue Service while National Police Air Service also helped with the searches yesterday.
The force said that a third young man remains still unaccounted for.
"We are advising the public to avoid the area where possible whilst we continue to work at the scene," the force website stated.
