Firefighters Rescue 3 Dangling Workers After Platform Broke Beneath Them

BALTIMORE (WJZ)—It was a frightening few moments for some workers downtown.

Three men were caulking windows at the Johns Hopkins Outpatient Center on Broadway Tuesday morning when the motor on part of their scaffolding failed and it collapsed.

They dangled precariously until rescue workers could reach them and successfully lower them down to the ground.

They might have been shaken up, but they were not injured.
