Firefighters rescue man after nine hours of shaft

The fire in the German city of Braunschweig has saved a 30-year-old man who has spent nine hours in a five meter deep shaft.

Passersby heard on Saturday afternoon cry at the nearby railway premises and alerted the police. Which hit the man with a wooden boards covered shaft. The man was in his own words in tipsy state to cut off the road to the station by walking across the railway premises. In the dark, he walked on the wooden cover and was dumped in the water.
