This is from Larry Shapiro: The right lane on Route 53 was blocked by the contractor’s vehicles. Larry Shapiro photo Two workers from a private contractor were inside a sanitary sewer on Route 53, west of Old McHenry Road, around noon today when they were overcome by fumes and became unconscious. The Long Grove Fire Department quickly responded to the incident, which is just under a mile from their station. Upon arrival, they found a Lake County Sheriff’s deputy trying to pull one worker out of the manhole while assisting another. The contractor’s equipment showing the hose line going into the manhole.

Larry Shapiro photo Lincolnshire-Riverwoods and Buffalo Grove sent suppression units and technical rescue teams, while Deerfield and Palatine Rural ambulances arrived at the scene. Firefighters wearing breathing apparatus quickly entered the sewer and rescued both men within minutes. Both were revived and taken to a local hospital for further evaluation. All personnel involved went through decontamination due to the presence of noxious gases in the sewer. The sheriff’s deputy was also checked on-site for any potential exposure.
