On 2-26-24, at about 12:25pm, Deputies with the Delta County Sheriff’s Office were dispatched to Big Bay de Noc, near Fayette State Park.
A man walked out onto the ice to go fishing. A large piece of that ice broke off and was floating away. He was about 300-400 yards off the shore. Units responded and Masonville Township’s airboat was able to safely bring the man to shore. He was not injured.
Deputies were assisted by the Michigan State Police, Masonville Fire, Delta Co Search and Rescue, Ensign Fire and TriStar EMS.
The ice conditions are constantly changing. If you are going out on the ice, please take precautions to keep yourself safe.
