Halifax Regional Police issued a release shortly before 6 a.m. on Friday to say they were helping someone on the frozen lake.
Halifax Fire adds they were called to the scene to assist and medical care was provided to the individual by EHS because of the cold temperatures.
With the windchill, it was feeling like minus 19 during the ice rescue.
