Sioux Falls Fire Rescue crews rescued a man from the Big Sioux River just before he would have entered the falls at the top of Falls Park Tuesday (March 26)

An incident at the Smithfield Foods wastewater treatment plant resulted in higher that allowed limits of ammonia, which were discharged into the Big Sioux River.
