A woman in eastern Spain spent eight days trapped in an elevator before police finally freed her, Spanish media reported on Friday.
The 35-year-old woman lived alone in a three-story house in the town of Sitges, near Barcelona. The lift, which was in her home, is thought to have malfunctioned due to an electrical fault.
Her relatives alerted the police after they had not heard from her for several days. Police found the woman conscious, but disorientated.
The woman was taken to a local hospital, but doctors say she has no serious health problems.
Police say it is not yet clear how she managed to survive.
