A woman from Devon was rescued by fire fighters after she was accidentally locked up in a cupboard by her one-year old daughter.
Metro UK reports that the woman, who preferred to remain anonymous was “saved” after she managed to alert her next door neighbour who in-turn called the fire service.
A spokesman for Devon and Somerset Fire and Rescue Service said: “A fire appliance was mobilised from Plymstock fire station and, on arrival, confirmed there was an adult locked in the under stairs cupboard as well as a one-year-old child locked in the property. Crews used small tools and a triple extension ladder to gain access and release the adult from the cupboard.”
