Two people driving in a pickup truck escaped serious injury this weekend in Colchester, Vermont, after they drove on the frozen surface of Lake Champlain s Mallets Bay Sunday night and broke through the ice, sinking into the water below.
The two people in the truck made it to shore, police said, and were brought to the hospital to be evaluated for minor injuries related to the frigid cold.
The case now has public safety officials urging people to be more aware of how thick ice is before they venture onto it.
“There’s no reason to chance it,” said Sgt. Francis Gonyaw of the Colchester Police Department.
