Nashville’s WSMV reports that there is an on-going search for a 19-year-old man who went missing after a tubing accident at Kentucky Lake in Humphreys County, Tennessee. According to reports, the search began at 4pm on Sunday at Mason’s Boat Dock and Marina after two teens were involved in a tubing accident.

Authorities have not released the 19-year-old’s name, but he is believed to be the son of country singer Craig Morgan.

“We are not prepared to release any names at this time. I hope you can understand the situation we are in and the strain that has been put on the family and friends,” Chief Deputy Rob Edwards with the Humphreys County Sheriff’s Office told WSMV.

The search went through the night, with about five boats actively looking for the 19-year-old on the lake. This morning, a full-scale search resumed at about 6am.

Crews are also said to be using an underwater vehicle to search the lake, which is up to 15 feet deep in some parts.

Update: Morgan’s publicist just issued a statement confirming that the man missing is Jerry Greer, Morgan’s son. Read it HERE.
