Divers search for water scooter rider
Rescuers on Saturday continued their search for a man who was riding a water scooter before he went missing on Windermere's Little Lake Sawyer on Friday as he celebrated the Fourth of July. Orange County Sheriff's Office Cpl. Susan Soto did not identify the man but said he was a Lake County resident and that he was married. The man's mother has been notified of the incident, which is being treated as a "possible drowning," Soto said. About 30 rescuers with the Orange County Sheriff's Office -- including about 11 divers -- along with Orange County Fire Rescue combed the lake. The man was reported missing Friday about 9:45 p.m. by someone who noticed a watercraft circling around the lake with no driver on it. A search Friday night yielded no body, so officials resumed the search Saturday. Soto said the man was visiting friends who were hosting a Fourth of July gathering when he borrowed the watercraft. On Saturday, onlookers in the neighborhood lined with lakefront homes watched as professional divers readied to look for the man. "I'm surprised they haven't found him," said neighbor Mark Spears. "It's not a very big lake."
