Missouri Teen Rescued From Grain Elevator

 A teen in Clinton, Missouri, is safe after being trapped in a grain elevator.

 The teen - who is employed by the Hankins Grain Company in Clinton – was trying to loosen wet grain in the bin when he was sucked into the bin and got stuck. Crews from the Clinton Fire Department arrived on the scene and used a device specifically designed for grain bin rescues, called “the Great Wall of Rescue.” The victim was freed after a three-hour rescue attempt and taken to a nearby hospital where he is reported in good condition.
