LOS ANGELES, CA — A hiker was rescued from a "precarious location" in Griffith Park on Sunday, according to the Los Angeles Fire Department.

The rescue operation was conducted at around 7 p.m. Park rangers located a hiker about 75 feet from a ridge north of Griffith Observatory. The hiker, who was uninjured, was stuck in a precarious location, the LAFD said.

"Park Rangers deployed a rope rescue system and lowered a rescuer to secure the patient. As firefighters met them on scene, they were conducting a raising operation. The patient was safely brought topside and evaluated to ensure no injuries," the LAFD said.
