Police have rescued 11 people who spent several hours trapped in a lift in Sydney's tallest building. Building management is now examining what caused the incident.
LIKE a scene from a Hollywood movie, police last night launched a daring rescue to free 11 people trapped in a Sydney Tower elevator 200m above the ground.
Officers were forced to smash their way through the lift's ceiling and pull those stranded out one by one.
The delicate rescue mission was launched after what should have been a routine 40-second descent from the Tower's observation deck turned into a four-hour nightmare.
