Excerpts from the ChicagoTribune.com:
A piece of construction equipment toppled over into a ditch injuring a construction worker and spilling fuel early Wednesday morning.
Mundelein Police Chief Eric Guenther said the machine’s operator escaped and was walking around before
first responderspolice and firefighters arrived.Crews were in a large ditch next to the lake and using a drill to complete work under the roadway, according to Guenther. He said the crane attached to a front loader was lifting the drill out of the ditch so it could be refueled, but a weight imbalance caused both machines to tumble into the ditch.

This from Tim Olk:
On Sat July 23,2016, Chicago Fire Department Tower Ladder 10 was sent to a high-rise on north Halsted for a report of four people stuck in an elevator. After trying to reset the elevator failed, they requested a blind shaft response.
Companies were:
Batt 3
Tower 10
Squad 1
Squad 2
Special Operations Chief 515
and an ambulance
The car was stuck between floors 2&3. Firefighters locked out the elevator and setup on the 5th floor with ropes and worked off floor 4. After lowering a firefighter down the shaft, they found four girls who had been in there for two hours but were in good spirits. Firefighters brought them to the 4th floor by rope where they were evaluated by paramedics.
