Firefighters from the Security and Emergency Consortium have this Thursday come to the rescue of a four-year-old girl "who was alone in her home" in Arrecife and who "was leaning out of one of the windows, with the risk of falling into the void."

After being alerted by the Cecoes at around 1:45 p.m., the firefighters went to the house, located on the fourth floor of Caldera de Taburiente street, and proceeded to enter it with the help of a turntable ladder.

Once inside, the Security and Emergency Consortium personnel verified that the minor was "in perfect condition", so they remained with her in the house until the arrival of the mother, who was alerted by the Local Police. In addition to municipal agents, members of the National Police also went to the scene.
