A construction worker was being treated at a local hospital Monday after he became trapped in trench.

The worker’s leg was pinned between a storm pipe and a backhow bucket at a construction site at Brownsburg East Middle School, RTV6 reported.

Rescuers said they secured the heavy machinery in the area surrounding the trench to prevent it from collapsing, and the worker was lifted out in a basket.
