PA Crews Rescue Nude Man “Immersed” In Craphole Of Port-A-Potty
LEBANON, Pa. — Rescue crews had to cut apart a portable toilet to rescue a man who got stuck naked inside the potty. Authorities say the 31-year-old man used his cell phone to call 911 on Sunday from inside a portable toilet.
Police say the man had been drinking and had taken off his clothes. Somehow, he immersed himself, past his waist up to his knees, in the holding tank.
Shannon P. Hunter was drunk when firefighters arrived on the scene. According to the York Daily record, emergency crews had to cut away the toilet around Hunter because he was wedged in tightly. He told them he was drunk and fell in, but only shrugged his shoulders when they asked why he was nude.
Hunter had to be decontaminated before paramedics could care for his scrapes and bruises at the spot where he was stuck, due to the probable health problems associated with human waste and the formaldehyde-based chemicals used in the water in the holding tank.
Firefighters estimate Hunter was stuck for about a half-hour before his yelling for help was noticed. It took about 25 minutes to get him out.
Deputy fire commissioner Chris Miller told WPMT-TV, “I’ve been on the job in one form or fashion for 21 years, and this is the first port-a-potty rescue I’ve ever had.”
Police charged the man with public drunkenness and creating a health code violation. They said he didn’t suffer any serious injuries.
