9-Year-Old Boy Dies After Falling Through Ice In Sparta

First responders were only able to save one of the boys who fell through the ice covering Sparta’s Perch Lake Sunday afternoon.  Ropes were used to rescue a 12-year-old and another child was safely on the shore in Fisherman’s Park when rescuers arrived.  Dive teams used underwater cameras to find a nine-year-old boy who was submerged.  He was pulled out and taken to a Minnesota hospital, where he died.  His name hasn’t been released.
