How the Lake Meredith UTV Rescue Unfolded
Moore County officials said deputies were called to the area around 10:30 p.m. after reports of a UTV rolling over. Officials said one person was reported injured and another was missing and unaccounted for. Moore County deputies, Moore County Emergency Management, the Dumas Fire Department and the National Park Service set up a staging area near a bridge, where a vehicle belonging to one of the two people was found. Officials said deputies used a department UTV to carry EMS across rough terrain to the east side of the creek to reach the other person.
What Comes Next After the Moore County Rescue
Officials said first responders evaluated the second person at the scene and safely brought him back to the staging area. Authorities have not released the names of the two people rescued. No details have been announced about the cause of the crash or the extent of the injuries.
Police usually wait to release the names of the people involved until their families have been told. That is why names often come out a day or more later.

Crash report. The crash report is usually ready a few weeks after the crash, and you can still get it later.
