SHINNSTON, W.Va. (AP) - A woman painting a fence in the community of Bethlehem in Harrison County had to call emergency responders on her cell phone Wednesday after a camel sat on her and pinned her to the ground.
Volunteer firefighters and the property owner helped move the 1,500-pound camel off the woman, who was having trouble breathing, ambulance driver Brent Hicks said Wednesday.
"There is no protocol on something like this," said Hicks.
Officials declined to release the names of the painter or the property owner who owns the camel.
