SAN DIEGO (KGTV) – Firefighters rescued a woman who fell 30 feet between two walls at her Old Town apartment complex.

The incident happened at around 9:45 p.m. at an apartment building in the 3900 block of Ampudia Street, according to San Diego Fire-Rescue officials.

Officials said the woman is believed to have locked herself out of her apartment and was attempting to climb to a second-story balcony when she slipped and fell.
