Stuck on his way to Sunday prayer: Pope Francis trapped in a lift

ROME (dpa)- The faithful in Rome had to wait almost half an hour on Sunday for Pope Francis to lead the traditional Angelus prayer as the head of the Catholic Church was stuck in a Vatican lift.
"I have to apologize for the delay but I got stuck in the lift for 25 minutes," Francis told the congregation in St. Peter's Square. Firefighters finally got him out of his predicament, he said.
The reason for the elevator problems had apparently been a drop in voltage.
