Warning: Thin Ice


OPP say the public should be weary about going on still frozen lakes and rivers.

Constable Anne McCoy recent weather should be caution for concern.

"Just be aware that we are late into our winter season," says McCoy. "We're getting into spring and the thaw is starting. We want people to be aware that they have to take extra precaution when they're venturing onto ice surfaces."

American authorities report at least two ATV's and one vehicle have broken through the ice on Lake of the Woods in recent days.
