WORCESTER, MASS. (WHDH) - Good Samaritans came together to help free a welder who became trapped under a large steel beam that fell in Worcester on Wednesday morning.
Emergency crews responding to a report of a 42-year-old man trapped under a steel beam on Grafton Street around 9:15 a.m. learned that the man had been welding when he became pinned between concrete and a beam, which was being supported by two metal frames, according to Worcester police.
Other employees made a pulley system to remove the beam off the man.
Paramedics transported him to a local hospital, where his current condition has not been released.
