Two workers on scaffolding on the east side of Stantec Tower were left dangling as high winds descended on downtown Edmonton Friday afternoon. Edmonton Fire Rescue Service crews responded to the scene just before 1 p.m. to perform a high angle rescue. Fire rescue officials weren’t entirely sure why the two were up there but they believe it had something to do with maintenance work. Fire said one of the two was lowered to the ground and was looked after by EMS. The second worker was successfully rescued just before 2 p.m. The video is from Yongshuai Liu. Edmonton Journal
