A Madison man's ice shanty and ATV fell through the ice on Lake Mendota near Warner Park late Saturday afternoon.
While Thomas Grebe, 57, did not fall through the ice or suffer injuries, his ice shanty and ATV fell in Lake Mendota.
Dane County Sheriff's Office Marine and Trail Enforcement Deputies and the City of Madison Fire Department assisted in bringing Grebe to shore.
Arrangements are being made to recover Grebe's ice shanty and ATV, according to a statement.
According to Dane County Sheriff's Office, the public should be aware of dangerous ice conditions on lakes and waterways.
Due to unseasonably warm weather, there are areas of softer ice and open water on lakes. The Dane County Sheriff's Office advises extra caution be used near structures like bridges, which can warm up ice and make these areas more dangerous.
