Both people involved in the incident are employees of the Mars Wrigley facility in Elizabethtown. In one of the workshops, they got stuck in melted chocolate to the waist. The company's confectionery operations in Elizabethtown are known for processing cocoa beans.
Rescuers arrived at the scene around 14:00 pm after reporting that two employees were unable to get out of the tank. Dispatchers explained that people "did not swim" in chocolate, but could not get out without outside help.

They had to cut a hole in the side of the tank to free them after rescuers realized they couldn't reach them through the top.
One of the employees was taken to the nearest hospital in an ambulance, while another was taken by helicopter. The extent of their injuries was not reported.
