A pickup truck went through the ice in Minge Cove late this afternoon, just outside the marina. Nearby dock bubblers and the water flowing from Minge Brook apparently resulted in the ice being only about 4" thick in this area. Many ATVs and trucks had driven over this area during the past week, but today a truck broke through.
Note: there is now an area of open water about 9' wide and about 50' long just outside the marina area in Minge Cove where the truck broke through. It will probably freeze over tonight, but it poses a serious danger to anyone riding/driving over it. Please be sure to avoid this area of Minge Cove!!
