Person pulled from Mirror Lake in cardiac arrest during annual jump

A person was pulled from Mirror Lake in full cardiac arrest at 12:15 a.m., according to Columbus police dispatchers.

The person was pulled out of the water onto a stretcher from the east side of the pond on Ohio State University’s campus, and taken to the Wexner Medical Center.

Beginning last night, thousands of students participated in the annual tradition of jumping into Mirror Lake on the Tuesday night before the Ohio State-Michigan football game.
