WYANDOTTE, Mich. (WXYZ) — Wyandotte's Fire Chief Jeremy Moline says rescue crews have pulled two people from an apparent hole collapse at a home in that city.

Moline says one of the men was rescued early in the effort, and the second was pulled out shortly before 11 p.m. The first was taken to Wyandotte Hospital for treatment, and Moline says the second is in fair condition and will receive treatment.

Moline says the work crew was not taking proper precautions for the warming weather.

The scene is at 17th and Vinewood, east of Fort Street and north of Eureka. Crews from other communities, including Livonia and Dearborn, were called to the scene.

There are reports that U of M Lifeflight was called to the scene, but it is not clear if they were used.
