A four-year-old girl was close to a deadly plunge after accidentally got her head
stuck on the second floor's balcony rails of her home, with her whole body dangling in
mid-air in central China's Hubei Province on Friday.
The girl who was left alone at home got her head wedged in railings in the morning. And
a passing-by resident called the police immediately.
"I drove by with my friends in the morning and happened to hear the girl crying. Looking
up, I saw her neck stuck in the protective rails and so I soon called police," said Zheng
Shuqi, a resident of Xiaochang city, Hubei province.

Therefore, several people from the neighborhood community hurried upstairs to the
second floor, calling the owner of the house to open door, but there was no response
from inside as the girl was found to be at home alone.
The girl's weeping sounds gradually trailed away. Before the rescuers arrived, a middle-
aged man borrowed a ladder from a nearby store, climbed up and propped the little girl's
feet with his right hand and, with his left hand to keep himself steady.
The man still was still supporting the girl's feet when police special task force members
arrived at the scene. With a ladder, some police officers managed to enter the girl's
house. They saved her from the balcony at north in a matter of a few minutes.
She was sent to hospital immediately. Doctor said she was fine except for a slight
abrasion on her cheek.
It remains unknown nevertheless how the girl got her head stuck in the balcony rails.
