It was four days of terror for a Cedar Hills woman. 67-year old Virginia Cartier was found in
her home by Washington County Deputies where she was trapped. Her neighbors called the authorities when they hadn't seen her in a while, which led to the welfare check that saved her life. It turns out the 67-year old was moving furniture when a dresser fell and pinned her. She was taken to and eventually released from the hospital. SGT. Vance Stimler with the Washington County Sheriffs Office said "
If not for concerned neighbors and the decisive action of the deputies
on scene, the result of this situation could have been tragic".
