Studio City woman injured after falling for the charms of pet bird

STUDIO CITY - A woman tried to retrieve a pet bird that had flown into the concrete-walled Los Angeles River, but fell 20 feet to its cement bottom Saturday.

The woman was injured, and firefighters needed ladders to get into the flood control structure near the Vineland Avenue bridge in Studio City at 9:48 a.m..

Her injuries were described as "non-life threatening" by spokesman Erik Scott of the Los Angeles City Fire Department.

A net was used to capture the bird just downriver, according to firefighters at the scene.
