Firefighters in Kentucky's largest city rescued a person trapped under rubble Thursday in an hourslong operation at a construction site near the city’s downtown.
The rescue was shown live on local Louisville television stations hours after the construction worker fell into a void and some debris fell on top of him around noon on Thursday. Paramedics were on hand to place the worker onto a stretcher, cover him with a blanket and transport him to an ambulance under bright lights set up to assist the rescue.
