The search for a man on the ice in Carroll Township has been called off after authorities could not find any signs of him.

Carroll Township crews were assisted by a helicopter from the Coast Guard as well as Ottawa County water rescue and dive teams.

The search and rescue effort lasted a total of about 4 hours.
