The Marion County Sheriff's Office said a fisherman called 911 after he found a black Jeep submerged in the south side of Lake O' the Pines. He told dispatchers that the Jeep was about forty feet from the boat ramp.

Deputies and a local wrecker crew arrived about 20 minutes later, and when they started preparing to remove the Jeep from the lake they discovered a person was still inside and moving.

The woman was rescued safely from the vehicle and EMS took her to a local hospital.

It is unknown how long she was inside the submerged vehicle or how the vehicle ended up in the lake.
