ATV Falls Through Ice, 2 Bodies Recovered In Beltrami County

MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) -- Two bodies and an ATV were recovered from the waters of a Beltrami County lake Friday afternoon after hours of searching for two missing anglers.

According to the Beltrami County Sheriff's office, a 29-year-old Princeton woman and a 28-year-old Stacy had rented a sleeper fish house from a resort on Upper Red Lake through Sunday. The two reportedly did not return to the resort, and a car belonging to one of them was still parked there.

On Monday, deputies found their ATV submerged in the water near a hole in the ice and say they think the missing man and woman fell in. Later that evening, authorities recovered two bodies from the water -- a man and a woman. Their identities are being withheld, pending notification of family.
