SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. — A man sustained head and shoulder injuries after he fell down a trench in north Scottsdale Monday, officials said.
Crews from the Scottsdale Fire Department worked to rescue the man from the scene near 91st Street and Happy Valley Road. Additional crews from Phoenix, Tempe and Glendale fire departments came to assist in the rescue.
A man fell in the trench and became injured, firefighters said. A second man, who was his coworker, then reportedly went in to help and was uninjured. The pair was 25 feet down in the trench.
The two men were safely pulled from the trench a few hours after they went in, officials said.
The identity of the injured man wasn't immediately released.
