The driver was said to be disoriented after being pulled to safety, so crews were unsure if any passengers were also in need of rescue.

A helicopter and several boats were brought to the area to search the water but no additional patients were found.

The driver was taken to a local hospital in unknown condition.

It was unclear what caused the crash.
