A search and rescue team is working near Manitou Reservoir after a homeless man called 911 to report that he'd fallen and was hurt.
El Paso County dispatchers say they were in contact with the man and used his cell phone signal to pinpoint his location at the base of Barney's Dome. They say he is about 20-years-old and might have been injured after falling a few hundred feet.
Rescuers say they aren't sure if he can walk out, but his legs are not broken. They're assessing his condition now, and will determine if they need to carry him out. That operation could take several hours.

20 years old and homeless. That's sad. I hope he finds something to do with his life so he can improve his situation.
