The McHenry Township Fire Protection District responded to three snowmobile accidents in the span of three hours Saturday afternoon, fire officials said. Only one of them led to a person being injured.
Two of the calls were for snowmobiles through the ice on the Fox River, and the other one was a snowmobile rollover accident, Battalion Chief Dave Harwood said.
The first accident occurred about 1:15 p.m. in the 1300 block of River Terrace Drive in Johnsburg, Harwood said. Fire crews were called there for two occupants on one snowmobile who had gone through the ice.
