A former superintendent of the Cass Lake-Bena School District died Tuesday after falling through the ice near Pierre, S.D., while trying to rescue his dog.
Carl Eugene Remmers, 66, drowned after falling through the ice on the Missouri River near a campground area east of the city.
“It’s a tragic but simple accident,” said Hughes County Sheriff Sgt. Darin Johnson.
Remmers was walking his golden retriever at a recreation area east of town and the dog ran onto the ice, which broke, Johnson said.
According to Johnson:
Remmers attempted to save the dog, and also broke through the ice. A witness called 911 to report the accident about 4:30 p.m. Tuesday.
“It was a stroke of luck somebody was there,” he said.
However, a rescue team had difficulty reaching Remmers because the ice was too thin to walk on and too thick for a boat.
Rescuers had to break through the ice, but it took more than an hour to reach Remmers.
