Emergency crews pulled a man from a south Tulsa storm drain Tuesday afternoon.

They said they believe he'd been down there for days.

Tulsa Fire and Police Departments were called to 81st and Lewis, near the Wal-Mart parking lot, around 3:00 p.m., after someone heard the man shouting for help.

Crews went down to get the man, who was naked, weak and dehydrated, but otherwise okay.

There's no word yet on how the man got down there in the first place, but firefighters tell us they've responded to the same type of call a number times, in that same area, over the past few years.
