Around 10:30 Mohegan District a crane working the Rt-2A construction project from the Mohegan Sun tipped over the embankment trapping the operator about 30' in the air. The only object holding the crane up was the boom. Fire/Rescue crews from Mohegan, Montville, Mohegan Sun and Norwich fire all worked to free the operator. They worked for about 1.5 hrs to safely rescue the operator.
