The woman’s daughter contacted Kingwood Station troopers shortly before 9:25 p.m. Tuesday with reports that her mother had walked away from her East Amwell home and had not yet returned.
The woman was located in a nearby patch of woods with an aerial search before troopers approached her on foot and untangled her from a thick brush that she had fallen and become trapped in, authorities said.
The woman was treated at the scene by Amwell Valley Ambulance and taken to a local hospital, where she is expected to make a full recovery.
“Due to the quick actions of the troopers and first responders, the woman was provided with the care she needed,” police said.
