The Hutchinson Fire Department rescued two Cargill Salt workers from 70 feet in the air on Monday afternoon. The HFD responded around 3:30 p.m. to the report of two workers stuck on a hydraulic man lift approximately 100 feet in the air at Cargill Salt. Fire crews found the workers uninjured approximately 70 feet off the ground. The HFD says the lift had mechanical problems and could not be lowered to the ground. In less than 15 minutes, Hutchinson Fire was able to use a 100-foot aerial ladder to get the men off the lift, onto the aerial platform, and to the ground.
