Video: Truck and trailer take a dip

'The guy was trying to back up his boat and he said his brake lines blew'

SUDBURY — Frank Pelletier captured this video of a truck being removed from Ramsey Lake on Sunday afternoon.

Pelletier, who was returning from a boat ride on Ramsey Lake, said he saw the truck and trailer completely submerged under water when he arrived at the dock at the boat launch. 

"The guy was trying to back up his boat and he said his brake lines blew," Pelletier wrote to Sudbury.com. "There were no injuries ...  the people got out safely as far as I know."

The truck was winched back on to dry land with help from a tow truck.

Not a great start to a leisurely Sunday on the lake.
