   A rescue team extracted a woman trapped in the chimney of a   
   Southern California home Sunday, according to police.   
      
   The woman, later identified as Genoveva Nunez-Figueroain a   
   report from the Ventura County Sheriff's Office, had been stuck   
   for several hours, Capt. Mike Lindbery, Ventura County Fire   
   Department public information officer, told USA TODAY Network.   
      
   She was arrested for suspected illegal entry.   
      
   Police told the Associated Press that Nunez-Figueroa knows the   
   owner of the home, who wasn't there at the time. The police   
   would not give any additional information.   
      
   Neighbors in the Thousand Oaks, Calif., neighborhood heard   
   someone screaming for help at around 5:30 a.m. but had   
   "difficulty pinpointing where that voice was coming from,"   
   Lindbery said. They contacted local police who realized the   
   voice was coming from a chimney. Police contacted the fire   
   department, he said, who then turned to a local search-and-   
   rescue team. That team proceeded to dismantle the chimney,   
   making sure none of the debris fell onto Nunez-Figueroa.   
      
   "It took them about 2 hours and 20 minutes to get to the   
   patient," Lindbery said, adding that she was conscious the   
   entire time and communicating. Once they reached Nunez-   
   Figueroa's hands, the rescue team used dish soap to lubricate   
   the flue and remove her, he said.   
      
   Lindbery posted photos of Nunez-Figueroa's removal on his   
   Twitter account, @VCFD_PIO.
