'It was horrific' Woman dies in freak accident after becoming TRAPPED in garage doors HORRIFIED residents have told of the moment they discovered a woman died after getting caught in the doors to a private parking basement. SWNSThe woman, understood to be in her 40s, is thought to have got into difficulty while accessing the automatic rolling shutters to basement of the Ruth Bagnall Court in Cambridge on Sunday evening.It's believed she was visiting a friend who lives at the apartment block, although it is not known if she was leaving or entering the car park when the tragedy occurred.Distraught neighbours claim they saw the woman's feet hanging off the ground after hearing screams for help.One woman who lives in the block and does not wish to be named, said: "I came outside because I saw the woman crying. I said 'what's the matter?' and she said something had happened and she needed help."I went to look in the garage and saw her legs hanging. It was not a sight to want to remember.

It was horrific and I'm doing my best to forget it."A man who also lives at the site said: "I do not think she lived here. She was visiting a friend I believe."She was hanging, that's all I saw. It is a horrible situation. I saw it and it wasn't nice."SWNSThe emergency services including police, paramedics, firefighters and the air ambulance were called to the scene at about 7.30pm on Sunday.One woman, who has lived in the block of flats for two years, said: "We were outside and we heard a crash, we thought it was an explosion."Then we saw this woman crying her eyes out and after that there were ambulances, police and firefighters everywhere."There's a manual switch to open the gate on the inside and my boyfriend thinks that she must have put her hand through to push it and got in trouble."He doesn't see how it's possible though because he's tried to do it before and he's got long arms and he still didn't manage."Maybe there was someone coming out at the same time and the gate opened and trapped her."

I went to look in the garage and saw her legs hanging. It was not a sight to want to remember One man, who has lived in the block of flats for six years, said: "We were downstairs in the garage and we was somebody hanging. I didn't see very well because we were a long way away."There were police everywhere after that. They closed off the area but I cannot understand how this can happen."The four-storey block of 72 flats was built in 2004 as part of a £10.5m housing scheme to provide housing for key workers such as teachers and fire fighters.Following their completion, the block was named after former Cambridge Labour councillor Ruth Bagnall, 38, who died from breast cancer in April 2004 after devoting her career to housing issues.SWNSBut private tenants - who pay around £800-per-month in rent - have blamed housing company Luminus for the accident, saying the company is too slow to fix problems.One man said: "I have lived here for five years and that door is always breaking. There is an automatic key fob that sometimes works and sometimes doesn't."

I don't know how she got into trouble but the door is automatic and is supposed to stop when it catches on something for safety purposes."Another woman, who didn't wish to be named, said: "I've been here for three years and there's always problems."The garage door to the car parking is always breaking, so are the doors to the block of flats and people are always stealing bikes."garage door cable rubbingA police spokesman confirmed the incident has been referred to the Health and Safety Executive.A spokesman for Luminus said: "At around 9.15pm on Sunday 14 August Luminus was alerted by Cambridgeshire Police that a woman had died as a result of an accident involving a car park security shutter at Ruth Bagnall Court."patio doors for sale ottawaLuminus staff were on site within 30 minutes to assist the police with their enquiries."composite front door hinges
