Hatzalah was on hand in Beit Shemesh on Thursday morning 28 Menachem Av, working with Magen David Adom personnel to stabilize a man injured on a rooftop while working with an electric disc cutter.

Hatzalah EMT David Zlikowitz explains the injured man is about 25 and he lost control of the power took and sustained a cut in his shoulder area, resulting in “massive bleeding”.

Due to the difficulties in lowering the injured man down from the roof, the fire department was called in and paramedics were able to transport the victim.
