An Australian woman was trapped in her toilet for a week before neighbours heard her cries for help, reports AFP.
The 67-year-old woman, a resident of the Ipswich suburb of Eastern Heights in Queensland, had fallen and wedged her feet either of the lavatory, with her body against the inward-swinging bathroom door.
One week after the woman suffered the fall, her neighbour Michael Hibberd heard her cries for help as he was hanging out his washing.
Unable to enter the woman’s locked house, Mr Hibberd alerted the emergency services. Once on the scene, police and firefighters cut their way through a screen door and a wooden floor to rescue the trapped pensioner, reports the Brisbane Times.
According to AFP, the rescued woman, a diabetic, was reported to be in good condition but was dehydrated after her week-long toilet trauma. She is recovering in hospital.
