CHICAGO (CBS) — The search is underway for a teenager who disappeared Tuesday in Lake Michigan in northwestern Indiana.

The Indiana Department of Natural Resources confirmed that a 17-year-old from Eagan, Minnesota, was last seen swimming near Kemil Beach in Beverly Shores, Indiana around 2 p.m.

Rescue workers responded to a call for swimmers in distress and found two swimmers and a Good Samaritan in need of medical attention.

The third swimmer is still missing.

The search on Wednesday was limited to the shore due to hazardous conditions along the lakeshore. The IDNR confirmed that a beach hazard statement remains in effect due to 6- to 9-foot waves.

Drones and ATV crews will continue the search from the coast on Wednesday.
