Angler Dies After Falling Through Ice On Martinsville Pond

An angler has died after falling through the ice on a private pond in central Indiana.

WRTV-TV reports that the person who owns the property in Martinsville called police Sunday afternoon after seeing tracks leading to a hole in the ice and fishing gear that was unattended.

Authorities say rescue crews pulled an unconscious 51-year-old Gregory Davis from the water. Davis of Camby later was pronounced dead at a hospital.

Martinsville is southwest of Indianapolis.
