ATLANTA - Atlanta Fire units responded to a Midtown Atlanta parking deck that suffered a second major collapse Saturday.

Firefighters rescue construction working from a partial parking deck collapse in midtown Atlanta
Moment firefighters rescued a construction worker after part of a parking garage collapsed in midtown Atlanta.
Firefighters had to use a saw to cut concrete and free one worker whose leg was pinned, according to the Atlanta Fire Department.
"One of the things they couldn't do was lift the piece up that was on top of him. They could not use airbags. So, the guys had to rig the piece that was on him with ropes and whatever and they used a saw because of the rebar,” a spokesperson for the Atlanta Fire Rescue told FOX 5. “They had to use a special saw.”
Firefighters were eventually able to lift up the piece of concrete and lift the worker out from under it. Rescuers then used a crane was used to move the injured worker to safety. Rescue crews had to relay instruction to the crane operator who was flying blind.
