Worker trapped under rubble in Kentucky

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — Firefighters in Kentucky’s largest city are working to rescue a person trapped under rubble at a construction site near downtown Louisville. Fire officials say a construction worker fell into a void and some debris fell on top of him just before noon on Thursday. The worker is speaking with rescuers but can’t move. Louisville Fire Chief Brian O’Neill says the worker is about 10 to 12 feet below ground. O’Neill says firefighters were on the scene within three minutes and began conducting a trench rescue, but it could take hours to get the worker out.
