73-year-old woman accidentally left locked in bank after closing


LAGUNA WOODS CA - A 73-year-old diabetic woman spent six hours trapped in a bank after employees accidentally locked her into the building, authorities said Friday.
Marian Prescher of Laguna Woods went to her local Bank of America branch Wednesday to look over contents in her safe deposit box and was given use of a privacy room to examine the valuables, authorities said.
Employees left her in the room when they closed the bank at about 6 p.m.
"They forgot she was there," Orange County sheriff's spokesman Jim Amormino said. Full Story - Western Union Money Transfer
