A truck falls through ice, almost killing the father and daughter that were driving in the truck on Saturday when it went over a thin sheet of ice on Lake Winnipeg in Manitoba, Canada.
The Montreal Gazette reports the pair were on a fishing trip when the incident took place. While driving the truck across the frozen lake, the ice reportedly gave way. Luckily, the two were able to escape unharmed. The father courageously pulled his daughter from the sinking vehicle, rescuing her from certain death.
"Their vehicle did break through," Sergeant Line Karpish explained to radio station CJOB. "Both he and his daughter we able to get out safely and did contact police just to let us know from home that they were fine and there were no concerns otherwise."
The Royal Canadian Mounted Police are cautioning fishermen to be extremely careful when driving across frozen bodies of water. As evidenced by the truck falling into Lake Winnipeg, the ice may not be as stable as it initially appears.
