A Massachusetts woman has escaped with an ankle injury after being dumped into the back of a garbage truck.
Police say the woman was searching for aluminum cans in a dumpster when a truck came and emptied it.
The MetroWest Daily News reports the truck driver was about to press the compacting button when a worker installing carpet nearby heard the woman's screams. He alerted the driver just in time.
Wendy Cobb was treated at a local hospital for an ankle injury.
She told the newspaper she's unemployed because of a bad back and collects cans when she needs money for gas.
She says the trash bin was nearly empty so she thought there was a low risk it would be emptied.
Police say the driver won't be cited.

Poor woman!
I hope the government does something for her. Maybe help her find a job or something.

You gotta do what you gotta do to survive.
