WOODBURY, Minn. – Two people are in the hospital after falling through the ice on Markgrafs Lake in Woodbury Monday afternoon.
Authorities say rescue personnel responded to the lake around 4:30 p.m. after hearing a report of a child going through the ice.
A person, whose age is unknown, and a teenage boy were rescued from the lake and taken to hospital, police said. It took the emergency services more time to save the boy, who was probably the first to go through the ice.
The condition of both people is unknown.
Emergency medical services, firefighters, water rescue crews and divers responded to the incident.
Woodbury police say others reportedly went onto the ice to try to save the boy, but also fell through.
Earlier Monday, around 11:15 a.m., a man was rescued from Wilmes Lake after falling through thin ice, police say.
