Firefighters rescued a 40-year-old woman trapped in a trash chute. Officials say they aren't sure how she got there.
Firefighters rescued a woman stuck in a trash chute Tuesday night in a Koreatown apartment complex.
The Los Angeles Fire Department responded around 8:30 p.m. to reports of someone stuck in an elevator at 817 S. Hobart Street in the central L.A. neighborhood. What they found was a 40-year-old woman lodged in a utility shaft about 20 feet down from the roof of the four-story apartment building, LAFD officials said.
“We had to come up with a plan on how to get that person either up or down,” LAFD Battalion Chief Lance McCloskey told reporters at the scene.
