Quick action by first responders saved a child in a farm accident last week.

Pulaski County deputies Alec Berger and Aaron Zimmerman were dispatched to a report of a child entrapped by grain in a grain wagon. Deputy Berger arrived first on scene and was able to utilize past grain bin rescue training to stabilize the child using metal sheets preventing serious possible injuries.

Medaryville Fire arrived shortly after, working together with Deputies Berger and Zimmerman, were able to use a grain cage to remove the settled corn from around the child before extricating the child.

The child was then checked by Pulaski County EMS.
