Link: KYUK via APRN A resident of the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta village of Kotlik tells of watching fellow villager Michael Hunt, 42, drown in icy river water, but not before he saved his 14-year-old son's life. Hunt and his son were riding one snowmobile when they broke through the ice. Another man who came upon the scene afterward saw Hunt push his son up onto a chunk of ice. "That's when he took his last breath and went under," the witness said. He and another man pulled the boy to safety, and villagers later recovered Hunt's body.
