Woman Rescued From Icy Pond in Queens: FDNY

A woman was rescued by firefighters Tuesday after she fell into a frozen pond in Queens, officials said.

Police believe the woman walked onto the iced-over Lawrence Strack Memorial Pond in Woodhaven, but the ice gave way and she fell into the frigid water below. 

The woman was still in the pond when FDNY firefighters arrived.

She was rescued and taken to Jamaica Hospital in serious but stable condition.

Police are investigating the incident.
