City paramedics arrived at the apartment of Marie Bowman, 70, on 111th Street around 1.15pm Friday and quickly realized that she was too large to fit through the front door of the dwelling.
The emergency workers were able to treat the retiree but they called in the firefighters so she could be removed from the apartment, which she hadn’t left in almost a year, using a crane and net.After being taken to hospital. Bowman tearfully told that New York Post that she felt like part of a ‘three-ring circus’ during the embarrassing event and now wants to lose the weight.
The FDNY workers performed a ‘high angle operation’ in order to secure the ‘larger patient’ and take her from the building safely after removing a window, the New York Daily Newsreported.
A large net was placed around her body and she was lowered into an ambulance below.
