As I was working on removing an old floor furnace in my residence, it shifted onto my right arm, pinning me between the floor joint and the furnace. This happened about 1 p.m.

I was alone and trapped until my wife came home from work. She called the police and I was finally freed about 3:30 p.m.

Thanks again to all involved.
