A elderly woman was injured yesterday when a lift in a Sharjah building fell six floors.
Police said nine people - including four other adults and four children - were in the lift when it fell.
An official at the Sharjah Civil defence said only the elderly woman was injured, and that she had been released from hospital.
It was not immediately clear why the lift fell.

The BIO
Favourite piece of music: Verdi’s Requiem. It’s awe-inspiring.
Biggest inspiration: My father, as I grew up in a house where music was constantly played on a wind-up gramophone. I had amazing music teachers in primary and secondary school who inspired me to take my music further. They encouraged me to take up music as a profession and I follow in their footsteps, encouraging others to do the same.
Favourite book: Ian McEwan’s Atonement – the ending alone knocked me for six.
Favourite holiday destination: Italy - music and opera is so much part of the life there. I love it.
