BOSTON (AP) — Authorities say a woman who had attached one end of her hammock to a rooftop chimney in Boston was injured after the brick chimney collapsed on her.
A spokesman for Boston Emergency Medical Services says the department responded around 12:15 a.m. Tuesday.
It took about 45 minutes to extract the woman from the debris. Firefighters used a ladder truck to lower her in a stretcher from the roof of the four-story building to the ground.
She was taken to a hospital with serious injuries.
The woman is in her 20s, but her name was not released.
