A three-year-old girl was saved in her last moments after she was hung outside an apartment on the 12th floor in the town of Zhangping, in the province of Fujian, China.

The published images show the young girl holding on to the window’s metal blinds while her head was stuck between bars and her body hung.

According to local media, the girl was left alone at home. Father was at work while Mother was out shopping for food after leaving the child sleeping.

The little girl was suspected to have climbed to the window before the head was stuck between the shutters.

One resident who noticed the situation alarmed neighbors.

The building’s security workers immediately intervened, entering the apartment under the girl’s.

Two men tried to support her body from the apartment windows, using a bench to keep her safe until the firemen arrived.

The fire crew arrived a short time later, forcibly opened the apartment door, and managed to free the girl from the bars.

The young girl was sent to the hospital for medical examination, and reportedly she had suffered no injuries. The rapid intervention of neighbours, security workers and firefighters made it possible to avoid a tragedy. /Telegraphy/
