Münster (dpa / lnw) - A mother broke into the ice with her child on Lake Aasee in Münster. Both were rescued by the fire department on Saturday and taken to a hospital with hypothermia, the police said when asked by the dpa. Mother and child were lucky and are doing well. The accident happened near a bridge.
After the accident, the police warned on Twitter against stepping on the ice on the reservoir. It still doesn't support people because the current cold spell has only been around for a few days. "There are ... still numerous people on the frozen area! Leave the area!" The police tweeted in the afternoon. The police said the ice under the bridges was not even close to stable.
