OTSEGO COUNTY -- A call came into dispatch around around 10:00 p.m. Saturday night about a snowmobile going though the ice on Otsego Lake. Someone reported snowmobilers crossing the lake and then losing sight of them. A command center was set up and Grand Traverse County Sheriff was also called to help with an air boat. Officials found the area where the sled fell through the ice and began a search. The snowmobiler was found on shore uninjured. Rescue crews were able to pull the sled from the water as well.
