Woman, who jumped into outhouse toilet to retrieve lost Apple Watch, is rescued by police

A woman was rescued from an awkward situation by first responders after bystanders heard her yelling for help.

First responders were called to the Dixon Lake boat launch on Tuesday morning after a woman was heard screaming for help, Michigan State Police said in a statement. When they arrived at the scene, they found the woman stuck inside an outhouse toilet.

The woman told authorities she had dropped her Apple Watch in the toilet and lowered herself inside in an attempt to retrieve it when she got stuck and could not get out.

Authorities removed the toilet, and a strap was used to pull the woman out to safety, according to police.

MSP spokesman Derrick Carroll told Detroit Free Press the woman had managed to retrieve her watch before her rescue and was not injured. Carroll remarked on the woman's gratitude towards the first responders that saved her.

Dixon Lake in Bagley Township is approximately 230 miles northwest of Detroit.
