PITTSBURGH —
An 81-year-old woman trapped in a bathtub for at least three days told a mailman who came to her rescue to “get me the hell out of here.”
“She got pretty feisty,” said mail carrier Thomas Breit, who found Eleanor Metz after noticing that she hadn’t been picking up her mail. Metz was in fair condition at a hospital today.
Breit, 32, said he told Metz he would call paramedics and she replied: “I don’t care if you call Santa Claus. Just get me the hell out of here.”
