The search for a woman last seen going into Jamaica Pond naked transformed the boathouse to a staging zone for the fire trucks and police cruisers that responded. While emergency vehicles circled the pond training their lights on the shore and woods, a Boston Fire Department boat searched the dark water.
Boston Police, Fire and EMS spent Saturday night at Jamaica Pond searching for a woman who, according to scanner traffic, was naked when she went into water. A special unit from Quincy joined the search late Saturday night.
A Boston police spokesperson said the department “had a report of a female in Jamaica Pond. The female is no longer visible.”
Universal Hub has been following the scanner traffic, which indicated a naked woman entered the water and began swimming toward the center of the pond.
