On December 26, three Indian families living in Chandler, a suburb of Phoenix, Arizona, went for a hike in Woods Canyon Lake, a 2-hour drive from their home. There were eleven of them, six adults and five children. When we arrived, the lake was frozen.
Several decided to go and take pictures in the middle of the lake and moved about thirty meters away from the shore. But the ice gave way and a couple and another man fell into the freezing water. Two of the children who remained on the edge and a woman tried to help them, but they too fell into the water, still managing to regain the shore.
Quickly arriving at the scene, rescuers managed to pull the woman out of the water and tried to revive her, but she died instantly, he wrote. “The Times of Navhind”. The bodies of the two men were not found until the following afternoon. The deceased couple had two daughters who were on the shore, the other dead man was also a father. They were all in their forties.
