This video package will show UTV (Utility Task Vehicle) ice recovery that took place today on January 10th, 2025. The cold weather we have been having has allowed the recovery to happen. Ice conditions were not safe enough after the UTV went through the ice. The UTV was sitting in about 12 feet of water. The information below is the press release from the Barron County Sheriff's Office on said UTV.
Press Release
December 26, 2025
On Wednesday, December 25, 2024, at 6:54 p.m., the Barron County Sheriff’ Department 911 center received a call of two people and a UTV that went through the ice near the Pokegama Boat Landing east of Chetek. Deputies from the Barron County Sheriff’s Department along with the Chetek Police Department, Chetek EMS and Chetek Fire Department all responded to the scene.
Upon arrival, both people that were in the water had been helped out of the water by a family that was ice fishing near the area. One male subject, 25 from Chetek, was treated and released at the scene, and the driver of the UTV, a 53-year-old male from Chetek, was transported to LMC with non-life-threatening injuries.
Special thanks to the family that assisted in rescuing these two people and all the responders who left their families on Christmas to help others, as they do each and every day of the year. The Barron County Sheriff’s Department Recreational Division is handling this crash.
With warmer temps this week, please check ice conditions even if you are familiar with the lake.
Per Chris Fitzgerald, Barron County Sheriff
