Authorities said the children were in the tunnels in the Staten Island borough for about an hour, fully lost and disoriented — with one cellphone providing light. They have since been taken a hospital, along with an injured firefighter, to be treated.
New York City firefighters mounted a rescue operation after five boys got stuck in a sewer on Tuesday evening, officials said.
"They crawled in there and they were in there crawling for at least 15 minutes and they became disoriented," FDNY Chief of Department John Hodgens said. The kids explained they were stuck in the sewer after going through a tunnel. They said they'd walked for a long time.The kids said they walked through a cemetery and then went down into the sewer system. Sirens can be heard on the 911 call as firefighters continued talking to the boys.
"It was a tight space," FDNY Deputy Chief Joe Harris said. "The member had to crouch down and then crawl."
