Crews cut holes into the grain bin to release a large amount of grain. That helped free one of the man's legs, and rescuers used shovels and other tools to completely free him. The man was transported to a local hospital for treatment, and his injuries were not believed to be life-threatening, according to 1011 News.
It is not known how the man became trapped in the grain bin.
