A snowmobile operator escaped injury when his snowmobile entered open water on Beaver Dam Lake. The Dodge County Sheriff’s Office says three snowmobilers were traveling across the lake Thursday night when they came upon open water. Two of the machines were able to navigate across the water and make it safety to shore. The third snowmobile became submerged in about five feet of water, ten feet from shore. He was able to wade to shore. Deputies helped him remove his wet clothing and warm up in the back seat of the squad car. Two of the three operators were cited for operating a snowmobile while intoxicated.
