Deputies responded to a home in the 1900 block of Woodside Drive (map) at 5:45 a.m. after a caller reported that the woman had been stuck in the chimney, about 8 feet from the top, for two hours, said Capt. Renee Ferguson of the Ventura County Sheriff’s Department.
The county Fire Department’s urban search and rescue team was called to the scene. Photos posted on Twitter by the department showed firefighters on the roof of the house as they worked to reach the woman, who was conscious during the rescue.
The flue was lubricated with dish soap before she was lifted out of the chimney, placed in a stokes basked and hoisted from the roof by a ladder truck, according to VCFD Capt. Mike Lindbery.
The woman, whose “intent was unclear,” was known by the homeowner, the Sheriff’s Department said.
She was extricated by 8:22 a.m. and transported to Los Robles Hospital & Medical Center for evaluation, according to the Fire Department. Her condition was not immediately known.
The Ventura County Sheriff’s Department provided this photo of Genoveva Nunez-Figueroa, who was arrested on Oct. 19, 2014, after allegedly illegally entering a Thousand Oaks residence through its chimney.

She was later identified as Genoveva Nunez-Figueroa, a 30-year-old Thousand Oaks resident, and arrested for allegedly illegally entering a residence and providing false information to a peace officer, the VCSD stated in a news release.
The home’s resident, who did not wish to be identified, said he had met Nunez-Figueroa online and they had gone on about six dates.
He cautioned other people about allowing acquaintances into their homes.
“Before you have somebody come in your house really check them out … really give it some time before you let somebody in, because they might want to stay,” he told KTLA.

Well, does this action make this guy more eager to continue seeing her??? Geez louise..
I’m thinking that they went out on the six dates, and that she’s eager to see him but he decided to not continue things.
So her response is to get to him, break into his house, whatever it takes.
Sounds like a girlfriend you don’t want to have. OMG...
“Put a damper on the puns.”
Ok, if it soots you.
Cop 1: “Cuff her.”
Cop 2: “No way. Just washed my uniform. You cuff her.”
Cop 1: “Nuh uhn...I’m filling out the report. YOU cuff her.”
Cop 2: “I’ll buy the doughnuts if you’ll cuff her.”
Cop 1: “You’ll cuff her AND buy the doughnuts because I’m your sergeant.”
Noice!
‘nother good one!
For anyone contemplating going down a chimney, first go to your local library and look at the diagrams showing fireplace and chimney construction. You ain’t gonna make it past the firebox and damper. And if the flue goes to the boiler, you are not going to exit.
Sootinly!
She probably just figured he needed his ashes hauled again.
Oh grate. Another one.
Ho! Ho! Ho!
Good puns here, but their intent is a little smokey.
“For anyone contemplating going down a chimney, first go to your local library and look at the diagrams...”
OR
For anyone contemplating going down a chimney, first go to your local doctor and have an IQ test.
I’d hit it (with a fireplace poker).
“Hopefully his insurance will cover it.”
Probably won’t exceed the deductible.
Perhaps she should have thought ahead and lubed the chimney BEFORE she made her attempt. What if that guy had been on vacation? She could have easily died there, the same thing has happened before.
She was really stoked up about her eternal flame but he was just content to let the coals grow cold.
Also using the ‘smokey eye’ style of make-up. Although her overall coloring looks a little ashen.
... you guys are just awful
