This is why you should never park on a frozen lake
Published at | Updated atLAKE GENEVA, Wisc. — This is why you probably shouldn’t park on a lake.
Several cars took the plunge – literally – in Lake Geneva after falling through the lake during the city’s annual Winterfest, according to WITI.
The cars were parked on the ice when they started to fall through the ice, the Lake Geneva Fire Department told the station.
Large crowds are normally gathered at Winterfest and it’s not uncommon for people to park on the ice. But Saturday’s situation was different as people say there were a lot more cars coupled with the warmer weather — it became a recipe for disaster, WITI reports.
Tow trucks have reportedly been out since the cars started sinking, attempting to pull them from the water.
No injuries were reported.
