Ice rescue demonstration

Using a couple of wooden ladders, a New York City parks enforcement officer shimmied his way across the ice of Central Park's Lasker Rink Tuesday to a spot where Parks Commissioner Michael Silver lay on his belly. The parks commissioner played the role of a foolish selfie-snapping victim stuck part on, part below the ice of a not-quite-frozen city pond Tuesday afternoon. He and the parks enforcement officers demonstrated a tandem two-ladder rescue and encouraged all who spend any time near the water this time of year to stay off the ice.
