A sideways scaffolding marked the scene where crews rescued two workers at a Delaware hospital building Thursday morning.
The high-angle rescue took place around 10:45 a.m. at a building on the Christiana Care Health System campus along Ogletown-Stanton Road, said New Castle County dispatchers.
Both workers needed help coming down after the scaffold malfunctioned and are expected to be OK, said Christiana Care spokesperson Hiran Ratnayake.
"... a scaffolding malfunction temporarily caused two workers to be stranded on a scaffold at Christiana Hospital until fire rescue personnel were able to safely help them down from the building," said Ratnayake's statement. "Both workers are safe and did not receive any injuries."
As SkyForce10 hovered overhead a short time after the incident, you could see a scaffolding dangling on its side from the side of the building.
It wasn’t clear how high up the workers were when they became stuck, said dispatchers.
