Crop Duster Crashes Copter

Joseph Sailer of Shakopee walked away unscathed after the accident in Iowa.

A crop duster from Shakopee walked away from the wreckage Monday after crashing his helicopter into a field near Joice, IA. According to KIMT-TV in Iowa, 25-year-old Joseph Sailer was working alone in his helicopter when he clipped a power line and went down. The helicopter's flying days appear over, Sailer was on his own two feet by the time emergency responders arrived. "He's fine, walking. More mad about what happened to the helicopter than what happened to him," Worth County Sheriff Jay Langenbau told the Mason City television station.
