Dubai Police rescued a girl after she fell in a "manhole" over the weekend.
The General Department of Transport and Rescue of the Dubai Police carried out a rescue operation to pull out the Asian girl who fell in a narrow manhole in her building.
They used a stretcher to remove the woman to an elevated area.
Lieutenant Colonel Ahmed Ateeq Bourguiba, Deputy Director of Dubai Police's Search and Rescue Department, said that the Command and Control room received a report on the incident on Friday morning at 4:00 am.
The rescue team, under the supervision of Lieutenant Ya'qub Ishaq Al Balushir, rushed to the site to rescue the woman.
The team worked hard in trying to help the 32-year-old woman regain consciousness, assuring her that she will be fine.

Rescuers discovered that the woman's back and leg were seriously injured after she complained to them about being in pain.
The woman was carefully lifted out from the manhole, using ropes, and was given first aid.
She has been moved to a hospital for medical treatment.
