PITTSBURGH
--
A photographer who was shooting practice video for a University of Pittsburgh sports team spent more time looking at the field than he bargained for.
The man was stuck four stories in the air on a cherry-picker for several hours on Thursday at the school's South Side facility.
The cherry-picker the photographer was on wouldn't move and the company handling the machine couldn't come out to assist him.
