Two Recovering After Being Found Unresponsive Hog Barn

Authorities have released more information on the two people that were found unresponsive in a hog barn in Yellow Medicine County Saturday.

The Sheriff Office says after being taken out of the barn and initiating life-saving measures, 32-year-old Luke Stevens and 30-year-old Melissa Stevens of Rural Hazel Run were flown to Hennepin County Medical Center in Minneapolis. Both have since been released from the hospital and are now recovering at home.

Authorities say the couple was in the process of cleaning the hog barn when the incident occurred.
