Santa Clarita Girl, 13, Freed After Getting Stuck In Chimney

SANTA CLARITA (CBS/AP) — Los Angeles County firefighters freed a 13-year-old girl who was stuck in a chimney at a mobile home clubhouse in Santa Clarita.

Officials say crews responded Tuesday night and had the girl out in about 15 minutes. She was taken to a hospital to be examined.

There was no immediate word on her condition or how she ended up getting stuck.

Neighbors say it was the second time in less than a week that someone became stuck in that same chimney.

A woman who locked herself out of her Pomona home Friday decided to use the chimney to get inside. She ended up stuck for about five hours before a neighbor heard her cries.

She was eventually freed by firefighters and suffered only dehydration.
