Top / lead story: (It looks as though this story was carried over from the 9pm report). Local man gets stuck in quicksand-like mud near White Bear Lake: Reporting live from White Bear Lake, Tom Leyden discusses a man who somehow got himself stuck in freezing, quicksand-like mud in a bog near the lake. As Tom Lyden discusses the details, his back is turned to a barely lit swamp (he doesn’t make it clear if this is the exact swamp where the man got stuck). The screen then cuts to footage of rescuers discussing the uniqueness of the situation, and the things they believe the man did “right” that were most likely responsible for his escape from the mud alive - he stayed calm, didn’t thrash around, and evenly distributed his weight to keep from sinking further. After cutting to an exterior shot of Region’s hospital, Tom Lyden announces that the man is being treated for hypothermia, but is otherwise fine. | ~2 minutes / 30 seconds |
