On Sunday, February 4, at approximately 3:55 p.m., the Polk County Sheriff’s Office was dispatched to Union Lake for a report of a Ford F250 that went through the ice. The two occupants of the vehicle were able to get out of the truck, and there were no reported injuries.
The vehicle went through the ice in the area known as the narrows, where there were approximately five inches of ice. The vehicle is currently still in the lake, completely submerged. Erskine Fire and Rescue, along with MN DNR, responded and assisted with marking the area where the vehicle went in.
The Polk County Sheriff’s Office warns the community of unpredictable and changing ice conditions with the recent warm weather.

Seven port development projects that support efficient, reliable freight movement on Minnesota’s waterways were selected to receive $18.1 million in grants, the Minnesota Department of Transportation announced today.
The funding comes from the competitive Port Development Assistance Program. Two projects are located in the Twin Cities metro area, and five are located in greater Minnesota. The projects help improve Minnesota’s world-class multimodal freight transportation system and support growing industry, local businesses, and economic development.
The funding also leverages $8.8 million in local and private funding for a total construction program of $26.9 million.
“Minnesota’s multimodal freight transportation system – including the state’s network of river and Great Lakes ports – is one of Minnesota’s strongest assets regarding economic development,” said MnDOT Commissioner Nancy Daubenberger. “These projects are examples of how collaboration between local partners, enhanced by private-public investments in critical local transportation infrastructure, support economic development and job creation throughout the state.”
Twin Cities area projects
Greater Minnesota projects
The PDAP program has awarded nearly $70 million since its establishment in 1994.
More information about the selected projects and the PDAP program is available at https://www.mndot.gov/ofrw/waterways/pdap.html.
