Thin Ice on Lake of the Woods

A Manitoba motorist ventured off the ice road on Monday and his truck broke through the ice just south of Thompson Island on lake of the woods.
The driver and three occupants traveled off the marked path at Hough and Wild Cat Island.
All four occupants exited the vehicle and had to walk a short distance before flagging down another vehicle to drive them to safety.
OPP are reminding motorists to always check ice conditions prior to traveling out on ice.
