A rescue mission is underway at the Elizabethtown M&M/Mars factory, where two people fell into a tank of chocolate and are unable to get out.

Lancaster County dispatch said two people fell into a tank around 1:51 p.m. at the Mars facility on the 200 block of Brown Street.

The people in the tank were not hurt, but they cannot get out on their own, dispatchers said.

The chocolate is believed to be about waist-high, according to dispatch.

Elizabethtown firefighters are still at the scene as of 2:30 p.m.

If they didn't think injuries at first, maybe that's because it isn't warm bucolic_frolic Jun 2022 #19
