CAL FIRE Riverside Saves Naked Woodcrest Woman Stuck In Chimney

A crazed California woman stripped naked and tried to slide down her baby-daddy’s chimney — but wound up getting stuck for two hours before firefighters rescued her.

Tony Hernandez got the rude awakening around 5 a.m. Saturday when the 35-year-old mother of his children, whose name has not been released, attempted to get inside his house, CBS Los Angeles reports.

When the woman showed up and got no answer at the front door, she decided to take off all her clothes, make her way up to the 12-by-12-inch chimney — and then shimmy down, making a Santa-style entrance.

Things took a turn for the worse when the ex-lover got herself stuck just as Hernandez was getting up for work. He discovered the woman after hearing her cries for help.

“I’m trapped in the chimney,” he could hear his ex shouting.

Hernandez went up to the roof and tried to free her, to no avail, according to CBS.

He eventually said enough was enough and called 911. The Riverside County Fire Department showed up and finally freed Hernandez’s estranged girlfriend after a two-hour operation that involved busting the fireplace open.

The woman was taken to the hospital for minor injuries, CBS reports.

Hernandez said the entire chimney will have to be rebuilt.

This is the second instance in only a few months where a California woman became stuck in an ex-lover’s chimney.

In October, Ventura County firefighters rescued a woman who was stuck in the chimney of a man she had dated only a few times. Rescuers dismantled the chimney and used soap to extricate the woman after about two hours.

How fires get their names

Every year in California thousands of wildfires start throughout the state. In most cases, the dispatch center sending the initial resources to a wildland fire will designate a name for the fire, but the first on scene engine or fire official can also name the incident. Fires are usually named for the area in which they start – a geographical location, local landmark, street, lake, mountain, peak, etc. Quickly naming the fire provides responding fire resources with an additional locater, and allows fire officials to track and prioritize incidents by name. For example during the Southern California Fire Siege of 2003, the largest wildland fire in California history, the Cedar Fire in San Diego County, was named after the Cedar Creek Falls area where it started. The destructive Old Fire, which burned during the same time period in San Bernardino County, was named after the road along which it started - Old Waterman Canyon Road.
