Firefighters freed a woman Saturday afternoon who fell at least 10 feet down a cement-lined shaft at a construction site in Echo Park.

The fall occurred about 3:15 p.m. at 931 N. Everett St., according to the Los Angeles Fire Department’s Margaret Stewart.

The woman, believed in her mid-20s, had what appeared to be non-life-threatening injuries, Stewart said.

She was rescued from the shaft at 3:49 p.m. and taken to a hospital for treatment of her injuries, she said.
