Ice on ponds and cold water in winter, sentence 2

The deadliest moment is the rescue: people drown going onto ice after a friend or a dog, and dogs usually scramble out by themselves, so you stay on the bank, call 999, shout to them to keep still, and reach with a long branch or throw something that floats, never stepping onto the ice.

Who acts: deadliest moment, people, dogs, you · What happens: be, drown, go, scramble out, stay, call · To what, where: rescue, ice, bank, 999, people, something · Speech: someone speaks here
