Earlier this afternoon, Station was alerted to an ice floe that broke free stranding 7 people West of Catawaba Island. Station launched an airboat and ice rescue crew in conjunction with Catawba Island Volunteer Fire Department and US Coast Guard Air Station Detroit to rescue the stranded individuals. Please exercise extreme caution as the winds out of the South are causing areas of ice to break free. If you are headed onto the ice ensure you are prepared and monitor the weather closely. Remember no ice is safe ice. #IceRescue
