Toronto, Jan 8 (IBNS): A 35-year old woman died after getting trapped inside a clothing donation box in Toronto city of Canada early morning on Tuesday, media reports said.

She was caught crying for help by bystanders shortly after 2 am.

After reaching to help, the emergency crews discovered half of the woman's body sticking out of the box. She was pronounced dead at the site.

Police, who do not suspect any suspicious activity, said they were investigating whether the woman died due to an adventure gone wrong.

In a similar incident, a woman was found inside a donation box in west Vancouver just over a week ago.
