Twelve people were rescued in an elevator this afternoon in a shopping mall in Hillcrest, Kwazulu Natal.

It is alleged the people got stuck in the elevator for an hour after it was overloaded.

Netcare Limited Spokesperson Santi Steinmann said the twelve people, including children, entered an elevator designed only for eight people.

Steinmann also said the paramedics had to use the Jaws of Life to rescue the victims.

She adds that they were all treated at the scene and no one was injured.
