    Man saved after clinging to ice chunk in Alaska

     

    ANCHORAGE, Alaska (AP) – An Alaska man walking on a shoreline wound up clinging to a chunk of ice for more than 30 minutes in frigid water when the shoreline ice broke loose and carried him out into Cook Inlet.

    Jaime Snedden, 45, of Homer, was rescued last Saturday near the community of Anchor Point on the Kenai Peninsula. He was taken to a hospital, where he was treated for hypothermia. He was expected to fully recover, Alaska Wildlife Troopers said.
