POTRERO: Man falls into 35-foot well

(CNS) – Fire crews were working to free a 42-year-old man who
fell into a 35-foot well Sunday in the unincorporated community of Potrero,
according to Cal Fire.

A member of the man's immediate family called 911 about 4:15 p.m. and
said the man was unconscious after falling into the well off Potrero Circle
near Potrero Valley Road, Cal Fire Capt. Mike Mohler said.

It was unknown how the man fell into the well.

Fire crews were on scene working on a “confined space rescue,” Mohler
said.

The extent of the man's injuries would not be known until crews were
able to reach him, Mohler said. An air ambulance was dispatched to the scene.
