A naked Florida woman was rescued from a Delray Beach storm drain Tuesday after becoming trapped for an unknown length of time, authorities said.
Crews dropped a ladder and harness down the drain to lift her out after a passerby heard someone calling for help from below.
The storm drain is about eight feet deep, local authorities said.
Only a pair of scuffed, bloody knees can be seen of the victim before she’s loaded onto a stretcher en route to a hospital for medical treatment.
But after the rescue, authorities learned she had been missing for weeks, the Sun Sentinel reported. It’s unclear how long she was trapped – or what happened to her clothes.
First responders held up a sheet for the victim's privacy as onlookers cheered her rescue. (Delray Beach Fire Rescue)
"She was lucky," Delray Beach Fire Rescue spokesperson Dani Moschella told the paper. "I don’t know how much longer she would have been OK down there. The idea that somebody might be down there for any length of time is disturbing. It’s dirty, dangerous, there’s snakes, rats, garbage, dirt and leaves, anything that’s on the street that washes into a sewer, and it smells terrible."

Yeah .... right
She was in there for weeks?
You can survive without food for weeks, but not without water.
I shudder to think....
Where are the pictures??? There has got to be some pictures of the event - and her!! /s
Best. Spring break. Ever.
Hopefully she wasn’t a kidnap victim
No picture? Maybe that's best.
That made my day, thank you (and it’s only 0700).
The lack of custodial care for the mentally ill in this country is medieval and reprehensible and can be laid directly at the feet of ultra leftist radicals.
What has happened is that leftists changed laws and promised community care to people with non rational thinking and judgment disorders. This is totally ineffective and outrageously expensive. The leftists are now providing inadequate to no care to cut down the population of mentally ill. Basic custodial institution care is less expensive and much safer than the free-range psychosis now occurring. But it doesn’t fit into the ultra radical extremist leftist worldview.
If there are pictures, I don’t want to see them!
Indeed. This all started when the mental hospitals were shut down. The start of the downward spiral of our society. There are people in every population that should not be out in society and that includes the insane. I forgot which president ushered in the closures of mental hospitals.

“One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest”. That one movie got us where we are now. Thanks, Hollywood.
Careful, what has been seen can not be unseen.
Check out the pics in the article. I thought FL has no mask mandate.
At least she wasn’t drugged, raped and killed.
Well.., killed, anyway.
Well, it’s not a total loss at least she was naked... :)
Meth, it’s a helluva drug.
