RESCUE SQUAD HELPS SAVE 5 TRAPPED CAVERS IN VIRGINIA CAVE
Six men went into a Southwest Virginia cave Friday night. Only one was able to scale the cave without rope and call 911.
The Blacksburg Volunteer Rescue Squad answered the call. Now, all five men are out and thankful to be alive.
The cavers were rescued after 47 hours of being trapped in Cyclops Cave in Russell County. Steep terrain added to the difficulty of the rescue.
