Frozen car near Lake Erie now a tourist attraction

Frozen car near Lake Erie now a tourist attraction

The combination of high winds, cold temperatures, and a still unfrozen Lake Erie spelled trouble for the owner of a car parked outside Hoak's Lakeshore restaurant on Sunday afternoon.

By Monday morning the little Mitsubishi had been turned into an ice sculpture from the spray of the water. It quickly became a bit of a tourist attraction as folks passing by stopped to snap a picture of the frozen car.

Photojournalist Dooley O'Rourke talked with some of those brave enough to try for that perfect shot.


Photojournalist Nate Benson also saw the car first thing in the morning, he talks about how it got iced over, and how it could happen faster than you would think.
