A teenager from Colcord, Oklahoma is missing after a house boat caught fire and sank early Tuesday morning in California.

Four other Colcord teens and an adult, who is the father of one of the teens, were rescued by a fisherman.

The boating incident happened near Sacramento around two o'clock Tuesday morning.

Authorities say the group apparently woke up during the night to find their cabin cruiser on fire.

The teens who were rescued are being treated at a California hospital for non-life threatening injuries.

The adult who was rescued is being treated for severe burns, but is listed in fair condition.

Rescue crews are searching for the fifth Oklahoma teen and two other adults who are reported to be the boat's owners.

The cause of the fire is under investigation.

The group from Colcord was vacationing in California during spring break.
