Firefighters had to come to the rescue of a woman in Pennsylvania after she got her hand stuck in an ATM.

According to The AP, the unknown woman reached into the machine to grab her money, but got her hand caught and was unable to remove it.

Moon Run fire chief Paul Kashmer told WPXI-TV that his crew had been forced to use special equipment to free the woman.

The ATM belongs to the First Commonwealth bank, who have responded to the incident by saying that they are pleased the woman was not badly injured.

The Moon Run police department also revealed that last year they had to free a child who got stuck in a toy machine in the town's mall.
