A man was transported Wednesday, Nov. 3, from a grain elevator site west of Fairmount, N.D., to the nearest medical center.
The man, whose identity was not revealed by law enforcement, was injured at the accident scene.
An elevator cable broke as the victim was standing underneath it. The victim received head and neck injuries. Had the victim been standing 1 foot further away, an onlooker said, he would have avoided injury.
