That's good. The 4 police officers were rescued by the firefighterdls. What's the cause of the malfunction of the elevator?

If I’m ever trapped in an elevator, there are worse people to be stuck with.

It sounds like an imprisonment of sorts, and the Police officers now have experience of being trapped like this too. It was good they were speedily rescued, as it is never nice to be trapped like that.

Being trapped inside of an elevator is not fun.
