Update Technical Rescue; INC#1492; 10:08PM; 1349 S Flower St; https://bit.ly/3zfySXW; #DowntownLA; Firefighters used specialized cameras to pinpoint the location of the man within the 4-story chimney, prior to breaching the wall from inside the apartment building. LAFD Urban Search and Rescue crews were able to break through into the vertical space using electric-powered tools (to avoid carbon monoxide build up inside the building where the breach operation took place) and entered the shaft below the man and slide him down to safety. The approximately 25-year-old male was transported to a local hospital with moderate injures. The circumstances leading up to him becoming trapped are unclear.; FS 10; Batt 1; Central Bureau; Council District 14; BC11 BC701 E203 E209 E210 E3 E9 EM1 HR3 RA13 RA3 RA9 SO1 T10 T3 UR88; CH7; 14; Nicholas Prange
