Sebring Search for Missing Swimmers Continues

0:00First responders in Sebring, Florida are pushing hard to find two missing swimmers in Lake Jackson. The search kicked off just before 9 p.m., Sunday after reports of divers and trouble south of city Peer Beach. Eyewitnesses spotted the pair diving or snorkeling and called it in right away. Sebring police, fire department, Florida Fish and Wildlife, and Highlands County Sheriff's Office jumped in with boats and gear, scanning the water. All night. Now into Monday morning, crews are still out there combing the lake. No sign of the swimmers yet, and officials are stressing this, hits close to home for locals who hit the water often. They're reaching out for help from anyone swimming or diving on the east side between Sebring Elk's Lodge and the Peer from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. Sunday, call non-emergency dispatch at area code 863-402-7200 if that's you. Also, check on your people, roommates, partners, co-workers who didn't show. Every tip counts as they keep the hunt going strong.
