Saline County Central Dispatch received a call at 12:07 that a miner was trapped on a conveyor belt at American Coal mine on Thursday.

Harrisburg Fire Department brought in a ladder truck soon after the call and, with the help of EMS and fellow miners, carried the man down to a level that the ladder could reach. He was then airlifted to Deaconess Hospital in Evansville, Indiana with a back injury.
