When WCCO-TV first introduced viewers to Joe Whitcomb at the end of February, he was hearing air raid sirens going off in his Kyiv apartment.

The Princeton native was living and working in Ukraine.

On Wednesday, Whitcomb spoke to WCCO over Zoom from Poland. He’s been in the city of Torun for about a week, after a two-week-long escape from Ukraine.
