A man is in the hospital after he got his arm pinned inside a corn picker for more than an hour.

Crawford County deputies say it happened Sunday at 4:00 p.m. They say 22-year-old Curt Mazera of Wauzeka was working with a corn picker when it malfunctioned. That's when his arm got trapped.

Mazera was able to use his free hand to call for help on his cell phone. Mazera was flown to a La Crosse hospital and then transferred to Rochester, Minnesota.

His condition is still unknown.
