Two workers have been rescued after getting stranded on scaffolding that was hanging off of a New York City’s high-rise building’s 78th floor. The New York City Fire Department said in a press conference that they received a report of workers in need of help just before 10 a.m. on Friday, Feb. 28, in the Columbus Circle area. When firefighters got to the scene, they found the scaffolding “wasn’t attached” and had been “swinging around and smacking into the building,” raining glass “all over the street,” FDNY Deputy Chief Michael Trahan said.
