14-Year-Old Girl Rescued From Being Trapped in NY Clothing Store Dressing Room

New York City – A 14-year-old girl was rescued from being trapped inside a clothing store dressing room that used to be a bank vault. The terrifying incident occurred on June 24 when the Smithtown teen was shopping with her family at Kate & Hale in Port Jefferson when her 7-year-old brother pushed the propped steel vault door, trapping the girl inside. Rescuers have to break through the 18-inch concrete wall to free the teenager.
