Overview
- The Becker County Sheriff’s Office received the call just before 3 p.m. Tuesday for two teens who went through the ice on Straight Lake near Osage.
- The boys, ages 13 and 14, had been ice fishing in an Otter Sled and fell in as they tried to move across the ice.
- Minnesota DNR arrived first with a boat and, with a Hubbard County deputy, broke a path through the ice to reach the boys.
- Rescuers brought the teens back to shore, where EMS evaluated them and reported no injuries.
- The sheriff’s office is advising everyone to stay off area lakes due to unsafe ice conditions linked to warm November weather.
