A hunter was rescued by Maryland State Police (MSP) helicopter after falling from a tree stand in a remote area of Allegany County, WBFF reported.

On October 22, officials requested the MSP Aviation Command after the hunter was found suspended upside down in an unknown section of Jackson Mountain, according to FOX45 Baltimore.

The Trooper 5 crew and an Allegany County Advanced Technical Rescue specialist arrived and used an AW139 helicopter to position over a clearing. Rescue personnel were lowered to the ground to assist.

After about 25 minutes of technical rescue efforts, the man was safely brought down from the tree stand. The victim and a rescue technician were hoisted by helicopter and taken to a hospital in Cumberland for treatment.

Multiple local fire departments and Allegany Department of Emergency Services staff supported the rescue operation, FOX45 Baltimore noted.
