Crews have recovered the bodies of a man and two dogs from a pond at VOA MetroPark in West Chester, Fire Chief Rick Prinz said Wednesday afternoon.Prinz told reporters the fire department was called to respond to the property ju st after 8 a.m. after a maintenance worker noticed a cell phone, keys, dog leash and prints going directly into the pond.When crews got into the water, Prinz said they quickly found the body of a dog. After about an hour and a half, they were able to recover a man's body along with the body of a second dog.Prinz said the temperature of the water was about 27 degrees, and crews had to cut ice with an axe and sledgehammer in order to get to the man's body.While officials did not release the man's name or when this may have happened, Prinz said he assumes the man was trying to get one of his dogs out of the pond, and did not realize the size of the pond or the impact of the temperature.This is a developing story, we will update as more information becomes available. Correction: An earlier version of this story incorrectly said the search began Friday. WCPO regrets the error. ...read more read less
