A western Indiana man who became stuck in a water well while removing a pump was rescued after spending about an hour below ground.

The Tribune-Star reports that 78-year-old Glenden Campbell of Terre Haute was rescued from his home's well Friday morning after his foot became stuck while he was removing the well's water pump.
