LAGUNA WOODS — A 73-year-old diabetic woman spent six hours trapped in a bank after employees accidentally locked her into the building, authorities said Friday.

Marian Prescher of Laguna Woods went to her local Bank of America branch to look over contents in her safety deposit box and was given use of a privacy room to examine the valuables, authorities said.

Employees left her in the room when they closed the bank at about 6 p.m.

“They forgot she was there,” Orange County sheriff’s spokesman Jim Amormino said.

Shortly after midnight, deputies received a call from a cleaning person who discovered the woman, Amormino said.

She may have gone into diabetic shock or something. I have a feeling the bank better foot ALL the hospital bills or they are looking at a lawsuit.
