A woman who was trapped inside a wall of the parking garage is taken to an ambulance, Wednesday, Jan. 16, 2013 in Portland, Ore. Firefighters cut a hole through concrete and used an air bag and a soapy lubricant to free the woman. The woman spent about four hours in a space 8 to 10 inches wide before rescuers managed to free her as television cameras filmed much of the effort. Firefighters said they hadn't gotten a clear explanation of the woman's predicament. Lt. Rich Chatman of the Portland fire department, said she had been seen smoking or walking on the roof of a two-story building before she fell.
