TL;DR Summary

A Michigan man who fell through the ice on a frozen lake was rescued by a state police officer who used the man's dog to deliver rescue equipment and pull him to safety. The officer's body camera captured the dramatic rescue, showing the man trapped in icy waters with only his head and shoulders above the thin ice. After unsuccessfully attempting to throw a rescue disc to the man, the officer called the man's dog, Ruby, to him and tied the disc to her collar. With the dog's help, the officer was able to pull the man to safety with the assistance of a local firefighter. The man was taken to the hospital for treatment and later released, and the Michigan State Police praised the rescue and Ruby's role in it.
