Elderly Woman Stuck in Bathtub for Day

A woman called Tarrytown police to check in on her friend, who they found had been unable to get out of her tub for over 24 hours.

On New Year's Day at 2:46 p.m., a caller requested police check on the welfare of her friend residing in a Carrollwood Drive condominium.

Officers reported they had to break through a window in the rear of the unit with minimal damage done. They then came upon the 71-year-old tenant who said she had been stuck in her bathtub for over 24 hours.

Officers requested the Tarrytown Volunteer Ambulance Corps, but the woman refused medical attention.

Police told her how they got into her home but she said she was satisfied with the police response and the assistance.
