Warning about weak ice in Niagara

The Niagara Regional Police Marine Unit out with a message to stay off the ice.

Officials say the sudden rise in temperature plus the recent wet snow is resulting in deteriorating snow and layered ice.

The ice is porous and has low density making it very weak.

Right now, emergency crews are headed to Jordan Harbour after a call regarding a fisherman in distress.
