(Istanbul, Turkey) — Crews in Turkey are trying to figure out a way to get a New Jersey scientist out of a cave he is trapped in. Mark Dickey has gastrointestinal bleeding, making it impossible right now for him to walk out of the cave on his own. Dickey is about three-thousand feet down. The passageway to get to him is reportedly too narrow for a stretcher,  so he needs to be healthy enough to walk out by himself.
