Vatican City: Pope Francis said Sunday he was late to his weekly Angelus prayer because he had been stuck in a Vatican elevator and had to be freed by firemen.
"I have to apologise for being late. I was trapped in a lift for 25 minutes, there was a power outtage but then the firemen came," the smiling 82-year old pontiff said.
