Multiple agencies responded to rescue two teenage boys who fell through the ice on a northern Minnesota lake Tuesday afternoon.

The Becker County Sheriff's Office said its deputies and dive team joined Carsonville Fire and Rescue, the Detroit Lakes Fire Department, North Memorial Ambulance, Hubbard County Sheriff's Office and Minnesota Department of Natural Resources to rescue the teens.

The boys, ages 13 and 14, fell into Straight Lake in Osage, Minnesota, around 2:50 p.m., according to the sheriff's office. They were in a sled attempting to ice fish at the time. Neither boy was injured, the sheriff's office said.

The sheriff's office said it advises "everyone to stay off all area lakes at this time." 

The brothers say they noticed the ice looked thin, which is why they used the sled instead of walking across and wore flotation devices. They said it's important to share their story to keep others from endangering themselves.

"It's important to me because I want other people to realize that they should just wait and how dangerous it is to be out on the ice this early and when it's this thin, just not a smart idea," Gabe Savage, one of the brothers, said.

The National Weather Service notes that ice is never completely safe, but a minimum of 4 inches is recommended for ice fishing and walking.

Osage is about 30 miles northeast of Detroit Lakes.
