The body of a 66-year-old man was found on the ice between Montreal and Ile Ste. Therese.

A friend went searching for the man Friday morning and spotted some personal items scattered around an ice fishing hut near 36th Ave. and Notre Dame St. 

The man's body was located inside the hut, about 1 km from shore.

Montreal police are investigating the death to determine exactly what happened. At the moment they believe the man fell through the ice while driving an all-terrain vehicle.
