TAIPEI (TVBS News) — Eleven guests were trapped in W Taipei Hotel’s elevators at around 10 p.m. on Sunday after circuit breakers allegedly tripped.
Shortly after the power outage, firefighters, medics, and police officers arrived on the scene to rescue the trapped guests.
According to a social media post from an alleged victim, he had just finished his meal on the 31st floor and was on his way down when the elevator suddenly stopped.
