LEXINGTON, Ky. (LEX 18) — Winter weather in Kentucky may make ice fishing and skating on local ponds look tempting, but first responders are warning residents to stay off the ice at all costs. "It is never gonna be safe in Kentucky to have thick enough ice to be able to walk around on and play on. Warren said his department issues a public service announcement every year about ice dangers, yet they still receive emergency calls each year. You fall into the water," Warren said. If someone accidentally finds themselves on breaking ice, Warren recommends lying down and log rolling to the side to distribute weight as much as possible.
