A Vicksburg man was taken to River Region Medical Center after falling from a rig this morning at LeTourneau Technologies.

Warren County sheriff’s deputies, who responded with others to the 7:40 a.m. call to the U.S. 61 South plant, said Julian Rodriguez, 57, address unavailable, was working 10 to 15 feet off the ground. He is believed to have an arm injury, officials said.

Rodriguez works for contractor MGC, authorities said. His condition was undetermined, River Region spokesman Allen Karel said.
