Cedar Mill, OR (KOIN) - An Oregon woman was found alive after spending four days trapped under her dresser.

Deputies say she was moving furniture when the dresser fell on her.  Neighbors got worried about the 67-year-old because they heard nothing from her for a while.

"Hadn't seen her in a few days, hadn't heard much noise upstairs, but, like I say, she was pretty quiet anyway," said Rich Roisland.

They also noticed her newspapers piled up. Police were called, and they kicked down the door when they didn't hear a response.

"The first thing they said was, 'We think she's dead.'" said Roisland.

The woman was treated at the hospital for her injuries and released after a day.
