Greenwood man passes away after falling into 7-foot well

A 51-year-old man has passed away from injuries sustained when he fell into a 7-foot well shaft on Sunday evening.

According to information relayed on the scanner, the man fell head-first into the well. First responders attempted CPR but the man passed away at the scene.
