The man was working on a sewer project June 9 at the Old Saw Mill just north of Pocahontas on Route C. Officials from the Fruitland Fire District said the man sustained moderate injuries from the accident, but they did not know his status at this time. He was transported by Arch Helicopter Services to a local hospital.
