KBUR didn't reveal the names in their article. They also didn't link the video of them walking on the river. In fact, they even had the image of the three of them removed. Luckily for me, it wasn't too hard to recover it.
This is the photo KBUR had used for their article. On the left is Conner Brockett, the middle is Preston Broeker, and the right is Luke Haviland.
The article was featured on their Facebook account however that post was deleted.
This is due to the person who was commenting was the camera man. He revealed the other two individuals who were involved with the stunt. Fortunately for me, I was able to screen grab some of the comments from him.
There you have it, folks. He and his two friends are using their max brain power to walk on potentially unstable ice in short sleeve shirts and shorts. Here's the video of them walking on the ice.
If you are not able to see the video, you may have to disable any ad and privacy blockers to view it.
Here are some photos and posts made by the individual who recorded and walked out on the river. The first photo shows them on the other side of the bridge. Its unclear whether they walked the entire distance from the other side on ice or on stable cement ground.
UPDATE: MAY 5, 2014 2:00 AM
Here are some Vines two of the three individuals posted. Videos provided.
Hello, I am asking, as a concerned citizen, for the names of these idiotic children to be removed. I do condone the original scolding they received, but this could come back on them years into the future as a major problem. I know two of these boys first-hand and they were both punished for their actions, I am simply asking as a concerned adult for the names to be taken off. KBUR did the right thing by not disclosing names as it is actually a legal offense, I do not wish to take legal actions, so I simply ask for you to take the names down.
