Authorities in South Central Wisconsin are warning about dangerous ice conditions after crews responded to two ice rescues in one week.
Portage Police Department said the latest case happened on the Wisconsin River.
According to a press release, first responders were called to the 700 block of W. Edgewater Street at 5:27 p.m. Thursday evening for a report of a 12-year-old who had fallen through the ice.
Officers found two children, about 60-90 feet out on the ice, and both had fallen into the water.
One of the children pulled themselves to safety, while the other was able to grab onto a rope and be pulled out by rescue crews and then brought to shore.
Aspirus Divine Savior EMS paramedics took both children to the hospital to be checked out.
