A 3-year-old girl was accidentally trapped inside a washing machine yesterday before being rescued by a passing shopper, the Rockland police chief said.
Paul Hecker of 601 Arbor Drive saved the girl from the washer at Glen Rock Laundry and Dry Cleaner by smashing the machine's glass door and pulling the girl out. The girl became trapped when her 7-year-old sister accidentally closed the door over top of her and the machine automatically turned on.
The girl was trapped in the washer for more than five minutes before she was rescued by Hecker.
A Rockland Hospital spokesperson said the girl was admitted yesterday afternoon and was listed in good condition.
