Woman gets stuck on toilet, suffers burns
Thu Aug 3, 4:06 PM ET
COUNCIL BLUFFS, Iowa - A woman who became stuck to a toilet seat in a shopping mall restroom was treated at a local hospital after paramedics used fingernail polish remover to free her, officials said.
The 53-year-old Council Bluffs woman suffered burns to her skin in the incident, which happened Wednesday, officials with the Fire Department said.
Investigators said they believe someone placed a cement compound on the toilet seat in the restroom at the Mall of the Bluffs.
Investigators say they are treating the case as an assault and vandalism.
The woman, who wasn't identified, told KETV in Omaha, Neb., that the burns are painful and that the incident was one of the most embarrassing moments in her life.

Lawsuit #1 vs Mall of the Plains. Lawsuit #2 vs fire department response. Her lawyer will be treating this as his payment for vacations for the next fifty years.

I assume she's going to get a bundle, and it will be a bummer if she doesn't.

Don't think the toilet seat cover would have helped. The glue would have soaked right through it. It does pay to look prior to sitting, though. ;)

Uggh, Toilet Seat covers are queer. Only extremely germaphobic, paranoid people use those. I have noticed more people in Seattle use them than ever did in the South. Back home, I don't think they even usually stock those things in the bathroom...

It sure beats the hell out of standing on the seat and practicing high altitude bombing techniques!

Actually, I was hoping someone would notice the spelling of the word "gassket".
I cracked myself up with that one. I guess that's all that really matters.

You can put either the seat covers or toilet paper down first. Yuck.

Crazy glue on the mall toilet seat. Sounds like a great way to gin up a phony lawsuit.

LOL I noticed the "gassket" spelling, but thought it was a misspelling.

"I have noticed more people in Seattle use them than ever did in the South."Down South, they only used 'em if you had a two-holer, or larger....

There have been about 3 separate incidents here in the N.E. with public toilets getting glue.
