Summary A university student found herself in a sticky situation but authorities didn't leave her hanging.
Courtney A. Malloy was rescued after becoming wedged two feet in the air between two buildings.
Police say the 22-year-old appeared intoxicated, and at the time of her rescue was unable to remember how she got between the two walls in the first place.
In a phone interview later that day, however, Malloy told WPRI that she did not fall off a roof, as eyewitnesses had initially thought, but had simply been trying to cut through the eight-inch wide alley between the two walls.
Bystanders heard the woman s screams at around 1 a.m. and called 911. A rescue team spent an hour and a half attempting to free her, first knocking down a fence to gain access to the alley, then trying to bust through one of the concrete walls.
Ultimately, a firefighter managed to enter the alley and help the woman wriggle loose, according to NBC Connecticut.
Malloy had no visible injuries, but was taken to a local hospital just in case.
