A person was injured and another is presumed drowned after what authorities are calling a boating accident on Mashpee Pond on Cape Cod.

The injured person was flown to a hospital in the Boston area, according to the Mashpee Fire Department. It wasn't clear how badly they were hurt.

The fire department was called to Masphee Pond, in Attaquin Park, around 2:30 p.m.

Divers spent several hours looking for a second person before the Cape and Islands District Attorney's Office said the incident was being investigated as an apparent drowning.

The DA's office said foul play was not suspected.
