Two kayakers were found safe Wednesday evening after police received a report that two kayaks were found adrift on Lake Belton.
“Both occupants were successful located and are OK,” a post at around 7 p.m. on the Temple Fire & Rescue Facebook page said.
Temple police, Temple Fire & Rescue, and the Belton and Morgan’s Point Fire Departments as well as game wardens were involved in the search.
Police received a report of the two kayaks at around 3:50 p.m. Wednesday.
The level of the lake is 11 feet above normal and Temple Lake Park is closed because of the high water.
