A räddningspådrag sent in the afternoon to a construction site in Årsta where a man caught with his hand in a drilling rig.

Only after four hours, the man came loose.

– It was very difficult to dislodge him, said Lars Lindberg of Stockholm’s Fire Department.

At 14:30 o’clock in the afternoon alerted police and emergency services to a construction site in Årsta in south Stockholm.

A man had stuck his hand in a drilling rig and did not come loose.

First, four hours later, the man detached from the rig and taken to hospital.

– It was very difficult to dislodge him, said Lars Lindberg.

The rescue had to dismantle the whole rig to free the man.

– We took the giant gently to do as little damage as possible, says Lars Lindberg.

The man was conscious throughout the rescue. It is unclear how seriously hurt he is.
