 Mt. Vernon, Illinois firefighters rescued painters from water tower after equipment failure!


This scary situation unfolded at approximately 11 a.m. Saturday morning when two painters were left dangling precariously around 150 ft in the air after a equipment malfunction.

Great Job, Mt. Vernon F.D.!
