Deputies find woman inside clothes dryer

  

(4/26/07 - KTRK/HOUSTON) (KTRK) -- Authorities might have arrived just in time to save a woman's life in northwest Harris County.

Harris County Sheriff's deputies say they have found a woman in a clothes dryer inside an apartment at the Nantucket Square complex on Place Rebecca near Kuykendahl.

Officials were called to the apartment over a disturbance between the victim and her boyfriend. They interviewed the boyfriend, who told deputies they could find the woman in the apartment.

A search was performed, but deputies couldn't find the woman at first. They then forced their way into the garage area, where they discovered the woman in the dryer.

The victim was unconscious and deputies initially thought she was dead, but she has regained consciousness. The woman was taken to an area hospital.

Deputies are now searching for the boyfriend.
