Two people trapped in Horsham State Government Offices elevator

Two people trapped in a lift at Horsham State Government Offices are in good health after being freed.

The women were working in the building when they became stuck between the second and third floors.

Horsham Fire Brigade captain John StClair said security staff discovered the two women.

“They were leaving the building after a welfare check for the Department of Health and Human Services when the lift stopped.”

“We worked with a technician via video and reset the lift.”

“Both people are in good health and they’re going home – and will probably stay there,” he said.

The lift has been isolated and technicians will inspect it before it will be used again.
