Firefighters in Woodstock, Ontario, Canada, were called to rescue a person trapped in an elevator at the Church of the Epiphany on Dundas on April 6, 104.7 Heart FM reports. Public Information Coordinator Lisa Woods says crews were able to respond pretty quickly, adding, “Roughly 20 minutes by the time we got the call and arrived on scene and got the doors open for them. The individual was calm, cool and collected and understood there was a job that needed to be done and waited patiently for us. We train to get these individuals out of the elevator. It is something we do every now and then and something we can do pretty quickly.”
