Hampton Roads residents get stuck in elevator [updated]

Five Hampton Roads resident students started the semester by getting trapped in and later rescued from their building’s elevator Sunday night.

The group was traveling from the third floor down to the first floor a little after 11 p.m. when the elevator car started to shake. The car made a loud noise and then dropped slightly, according to Molly O’Rourke, who was one of those trapped in the car.
