Rescue personnel from Wilmington rescued a man from a grain bin Monday.

The victim, 76, was pinned by corn and grain in a bin on a farm in Sabina, according to WLWT.

Wilmington Chief Andy Mason said the man was stuck and buried to the top of his chest.

Crews poked holes in the bin to release some of the grain. They also prevented him from getting buried any further.

He was taken to Miami Valley Hospital to get checked out but is expected to be OK, the chief said.
