(KNSI) – A Cold Spring man was helping build a barn near Upsala when he was hurt after a 15-foot fall on Wednesday morning.
The Morrison County Sheriff’s Office says the 36-year-old was working on the roof when a support gave way. He lost his balance and fell 15 feet to hard concrete below. North Air Care airlifted the man to St. Cloud Hospital for treatment, but the extent of his injuries is not fully known.
The barn was in Elmdale Township, about a mile south of Upsala near the Stearns County/Morrison County border.
