She "got impaled through the leg [and] was left dangling on [a] fence for as long as five hours before she was found [and] removed from gate."

Tanya Little of the Philadelphia Police Department told Fox 29 the woman had wounds on both legs and feet "consistent with the gate."

"No other signs of trauma were observed," Little said, nor is foul play suspected.
