Emergency responders rescued a young man from a Tennessee State park late Monday afternoon after he slipped and fell.
According to fire and rescue personnel, the 17-year old was out hiking with friends in the Falling Water area on Signal Mountain when he lost his footing and fell into the Blue Hole.
According to Hamilton County EMS spokeswoman Amy Maxwell, it took emergency responders an hour and a half to get him out. Rescue crews finally emerged from the woods with the victim just before 7 p.m. He was transported to Erlanger in an ambulance.
No information on the victim’s condition or how far he fell is currently available.
