Woman OK after being locked in apartment following extinguished pan fire

By Howard B. Owens

A woman at 67 Myrtle St., Le Roy, managed to extinguish a pan fire on her stove top, but became locked in her apartment because she couldn't find the key for the deadbolt.

She reportedly was having a hard time breathing because of the fire extinguisher fumes, even though her windows were open.

A Le Roy Police officer responded within seconds of the call, gained entry to the apartment and she is now outside and OK, he reports.

Le Roy Fire is responding for ventilation only.
