An Indiana man is pulled to safety after being trapped in a silo for more than two hours.

Michael Geeting, 58, was shoveling wheat in his Dekalb County silo when he got sucked into the grain.

A family member called police, after she heard Geeting call for help.

Emergency crews had to repel down the 60-foot tall silo, which was only half full, to reach Geeting.

He was taken to the hospital but is expected to be okay.

Officials on the scene expect him to be fine.
