Satna Barbara Firefighters responded to a report of a man trapped in a storm drain on Friday evening near Anapamu and Salsipuedes Streets.
The man heard near the basketball courts by Santa Barbara High School before being called into local authorities.
Initial scanner traffic reports state the man was fully naked and stated he had been there for five days, according to Roger the Scanner Guy.
Firefighters on the scene were unclear how long the man had actually been trapped and how we got in the storm drain. The man was transported to Santa Barbara Cottage Hospital.

Report of a man being rescued from a storm drain. He’s saying he’s been there for five days. It’s a sewer rescue at Salsipuedes and Anapamu Streets.
FIVE DAYS?! How is that possible?! How did they fit down into it? SO many questions about this safety hazard. I see a lawsuit in the future…..
Did someone call it in? Or, … I got nothin !!! Usually, I can think of a dozen scenarios, but ….. I must be tired !!!! I know…. have JP do an interview with the guy , and try and get all the info straight from the guy !! JP = John Palminteri
Rex for the win hahaha
I heard 5 days on the scanner and reported it I don’t care if it was 10 seconds I heard 5 days…
Practicing fecal distancing…
If there is any chance this was a homeless person….shame on you SB..shame on you
An underground dweller. This is the start of a dystopian society here in SB. Underground dwellers.
Maybe the victim was trying to do himself in. Then this would make it a case of attempted sewercide.
