Teenager taken to hospital after lake incident
BBCA teenage boy has been taken to hospital after getting into difficulty in a lake in Lincoln, police have said.
Lincolnshire Police were called to Swanholme Lakes nature reserve at about 17:50 BST, along with Lincolnshire Fire and Rescue and East Midlands Ambulance Service.
The force said inquiries were ongoing.
It comes after 15-year-old Declan Sawyer died after getting into difficulty at Swanholme Lakes on 24 May.
An inquest opening into his death heard he died from drowning.
Since the incident in May, there have been calls for more city rangers in Lincoln's parks.
City of Lincoln Council said new safety measures, including a trial for a patrolling safety warden scheme would be considered at a meeting on 14 July.
The authority previously said it had a park ranger service covering Hartsholme and Swanholme Lakes but "open water will always carry risks that no single measure can remove".
A police spokesperson said: "While many people are looking for ways to cool down in the heat, we also want to remind everyone of the dangers of swimming in lakes and open water.
Conditions beneath the surface can be unpredictable and potentially life-threatening."
