Indiana Conservation Officers responded to a call for help on the White River on Saturday and rescued five hunters after their boat froze into the White River near Haysville.
At 11:37 a.m., officers responded to the call for help just east of the Haysville bridge.
Under weather conditions of 12 degrees and snow, with that area of the river nearly frozen from bank to bank, officers deployed an airboat, reached the hunters, and brought them safely to shore.
Other responding agencies included the Dubois County Sheriff’s Department, Dubois County Emergency Medical Services, Haysville Fire Department, and Luce Township Fire Department (Spencer County).
