Man Rescued From Grain Bin

Multiple emergency crews worked to free a man trapped in a Raymond, Nebraska grain bin Thursday. 

Authorities said the man was conscious, alert and breathing while he was trapped in the bin for over an hour. 

When crews arrived, the man had been buried by grain up to his waist for about 30 minutes. 

Shovels, ladders and other equipment were used to get him out, while a helicopter circled the area in case he needed to be air lifted to a hospital. 

The man was taken to the hospital with non life threatening injuries. 

Crews from the Raymond Fire Department, Valparaiso Fire & Rescue, Lancaster County Sheriff's Department and Lincoln Fire & Rescue were all on hand to assist in the rescue.
