The Falls Township Fire Company, Morrisville Fire Company, and Levittown Fire Company No. 1 were dispatched last Thursday to the Keystone Trade Center after a man lift malfunctioned.
Two workers were trapped in the lift’s basket approximately 45 feet in the air, according to the Falls Township Fire Company.
Crews used a ladder truck from the Falls Township Fire Company, which has a 107-foot ladder, to reach the elevated platform against the large building, the fire company said.
