January 9, 2011 - Fatality at Island Lake

Island Lake, Kodiak,

Kerry Felton, 40, of Kodiak died when breaking through while ice skating. Nick Szabo, treasurer for the Kodiak Island Search and Rescue group said "As he got out toward the mouth of the arm, the ice all of the sudden just pretty much disappeared. It was just barely an inch thick. And so apparently he didn't see that in the dark and went off into the thin ice and then went underwater."
