Woman trapped by letterbox pleads for someone to 'give me a hand'

Nicole Reporter from Dunedin News

With her hand stuck in a letterbox on a deserted street, a Dunedin woman feared her arm would be amputated.

The health professional, who declined to be named because of "sheer embarrassment", said the incident unfolded at her Loyalty St home about 10am on Thursday.

Rather than use her key to open her new metal letterbox, she "thought I could put my hand in and grab the mail out" - but it got stuck.
