Rescue teams have brought out the pilot of an ultralight aircraft that crashed in a swampy area near Eveleth. He was cold, but no traumatic injuries, according to officials, and they brought him to Essentia Health-Virginia.

Emergency response staged at the Ely Lake airport. The incident occurred around 5:30 p.m.

The Fayal Township Fire Chief says the pilot is a Fayal Township resident who has a hanger at the Eveleth-Virginia Airport, where he left from. Chief Steve Shykes said the crash site is in the middle of a swamp and it was difficult to get to.

The pilot told the emergency responders that he had been about 1000 feet in the air when all of the sudden the aircraft lost power.
