Drunk teen falls in drain

THUNDER BAY, Ont.—Storm drains and alcohol apparently don’t mix.
Rescue personnel were called out early yesterday morning to a storm drain where a teenager had become trapped after a 25-metre fall.

Thunder Bay police say the injured youth and four others—all intoxicated—had removed the grate and held the victim over the open sewer before he fell.
Firefighters rescued the teen, who was hospitalized with hypothermia and a fractured knee.
The four others have been charged with public intoxication.
