FIREFIGHTERS were called out yesterday evening after an 80-year-old woman fell and was trapped inside her bathroom at a property in York.
The incident happened at a property off Lawrence Street.
Crews accessed the bathroom using small tools and the woman received a precautionary check over from paramedics.
Earlier in the evening, a crew responded to a report of smoke coming from a pavement grate on Tudor Road, off Gale Lane.
This was due to a fire involving underground electrical wiring. The crew cordoned off the area until the arrival of Northern Powergrid.
