D.C. Fire and EMS used a crane Tuesday to rescue an injured worker from the roof of a building under construction in Northwest.

The unidentified worker suffered non-life-threatening injuries while up on the roof of a structure in the 600 block of Park Road NW.

In a video uploaded by D.C. Fire and EMS on X, the worker can be seen in a rescue basket with a firefighter strapped on, being lowered to the ground. The building is four stories tall, according to WTOP-FM.
