Trapped ... by a hamster


Published on Tuesday 23 January 2007 09:59

A WOMAN had to be rescued by firefighters when she chased her runaway hamster into a room at her Sheffield flat - and became trapped.

After escaping from its cage, the pesky pet scarpered into the bathroom and the owner followed in hot pursuit.

But when the door closed behind her she realised she wouldn't be able to get out as there was no handle.

The 29-year-old woman shouted until a neighbour heard her and alerted the fire service. Firefighters broke into the flat in Pemberton Block, Callow Mount, Gleadless, and rescued the distressed woman.
