A silo collapse has injured two men at a farm in Brown County.

The collapse happened about 9 a.m. Wednesday at the farm in Shirley.

The men were inside the silo when the structure, filled with corn silage, collapsed.

One of the men was airlifted from the scene. The other was taken to a hospital by ambulance.

One of the owners of the farm says both men were conscious. It's not known what caused the collapse.
