Colorado Springs (US), July 31: The Colorado Springs Fire Department has said that Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump had to be rescued from an elevator that was stuck between the first and second floors of a resort.

The department says the firefighters opened the top elevator hatch and lowered a ladder into the elevator.

Trump and the others used the ladder to climb out of the elevator to the second floor. The department says no injuries were reported. The Trump campaign confirmed that the incident occurred but did not provide details.

During a rally Friday at University of Colorado at Colorado Springs, Trump criticized the city's fire marshal for limiting the number of people allowed to attend his speech at the building where the event was held.
