Firemen free boy stuck in toilet
A six-year-old boy had to be freed by firefighters after getting trapped in a cubicle in a women's toilet.

The youngster became stuck under the partition between two toilets at a pub in Bristol - with his head in one cubicle and his body in the other.

Fire crews called to the bar in Hanham High Street on Saturday evening first tried lubricating his head with washing up liquid and pulling him free.

When this did not work they chipped a hole in the partition to rescue him.

The boy, who became very scared and distressed while stuck, was unhurt and happy to have been freed.
