But once the light covering of snow disappeared, the footprints were no longer visible.<br \/>Assuming the lad had continued on the northwest course he started, the divers combed the area looking for further clues.<br \/>Break Through Ice<br \/>Time after time they broke through the ice.\u00a0 Slush ice existed as far as their toes could reach, Frank said. \u00a0 As quickly as they vacated the hole in the solid ice, it filled with slush, he added.<br \/>U.S. Coast Guard helicopter also resumed operation but had to be grounded when ice began to form about 9:30.\u00a0 It is expected to take up the search again if the weather clears.<br \/>Although divers continued to probe the lake for the boy there are those who refuse believe he is in the water.<br \/>Shore Search Made<br \/>A thorough search was made of the bank area, it was reported today.\u00a0 Small buildings were checked hoping to find the youngster accidentally locked inside, safe and unharmed.\u00a0 Septic tanks were peered into, boats overturned for the winter were lifted; open areas under the summer cottages where a small inquisitive boy might get caught were investigated.<br \/>An aunt of the youngster insists that the boy was of a nature to head for Ashtabula where his mother works, if the thought came to him.<br \/>Vincent weighs about 50 pounds and was dressed in a brown hooded jacket and dark trousers when last seen.\u00a0 No clues, other than the boot tracks have been uncovered to hint of the whereabouts of the boy.<br \/>Searchers were joined later by other members of the diving club.<br \/>Coast Guard helicopter with great search lights entered the hunt about 9 p.m.\u00a0 Search operations by divers and others began again this morning.\u00a0<br \/>At the time of the boy&#8217;s disappearance fog was so thick the searchers could hardly see their own hand before them.<br \/>It continued throughout the afternoon beginning to lift about 4:30 p.m.<br \/>Coast Guardsmen from the Ashtabula Station brought a small skiff to the scene this morning.<br \/>The incident Wednesday parallels the drowning of Ronald Zito, 10, several years ago. \u00a0 Ronny, the son of Mr. and Mrs. Benjamin Zito, then living at 22 Ohio Drive, fell through he ice shortly before Christmas.\u00a0 His tracks led to the hole in the ice and only his pet dog&#8217;s tracks returned from the scene.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/details>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<details id=\"e-n-accordion-item-2361\" class=\"e-n-accordion-item\" >\n\t\t\t\t<summary class=\"e-n-accordion-item-title\" data-accordion-index=\"2\" tabindex=\"-1\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"e-n-accordion-item-2361\" >\n\t\t\t\t\t<span class='e-n-accordion-item-title-header'><div class=\"e-n-accordion-item-title-text\"> \"Wonderland\" Lake Erie Ice Weird, Deadly <\/div><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class='e-n-accordion-item-title-icon'>\n\t\t\t<span class='e-opened' ><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-minus\" viewBox=\"0 0 448 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M416 208H32c-17.67 0-32 14.33-32 32v32c0 17.67 14.33 32 32 32h384c17.67 0 32-14.33 32-32v-32c0-17.67-14.33-32-32-32z\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t\t<span class='e-closed'><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-plus\" viewBox=\"0 0 448 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M416 208H272V64c0-17.67-14.33-32-32-32h-32c-17.67 0-32 14.33-32 32v144H32c-17.67 0-32 14.33-32 32v32c0 17.67 14.33 32 32 32h144v144c0 17.67 14.33 32 32 32h32c17.67 0 32-14.33 32-32V304h144c17.67 0 32-14.33 32-32v-32c0-17.67-14.33-32-32-32z\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t<\/span>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/summary>\n\t\t\t\t<div role=\"region region\" aria-labelledby=\"e-n-accordion-item-2001 e-n-accordion-item-2361\" class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b03b19c e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"b03b19c\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e968590 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"e968590\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p style=\"text-align: left;\" align=\"center\">It is a wonderland of \u00a0 &#8220;make-believe&#8221;
