SEVEN residents stopping at the Comfort Friendly Inn, Burnley, had to be released from the lift by firefighters last night.
The three women and four men were going down in the lift when it jammed between floors trapping them for about 15 minutes.
Firefighters managed to prise the doors open and get the occupants to safety. They said the lift appeared to be overloaded.
