Firefighters have rescued a man who was stuck up to his waist in soybeans in a Wright County grain bin.
The man was stuck for a couple of hours Wednesday morning south of Montrose.
Sheriff's Lt. Greg Howell tells the Star Tribune that the man is "doing just fine."
Authorities were called about 9:20 a.m. After firefighters pulled him from the bin about two hours later, KSTP-TV reports he was able to walk to a waiting ambulance under his own power.
