A three-year-old boy had to endure excruciating pain for nearly 30 minutes when his genitals were stuck in an escalator at a shopping mall in Bagan Serai, Perak last night, 6 June
A Fire and Rescue Department spokesman reportedly said that a distress call was received at 8.16pm
"When we reached the scene, we used a crowbar to open the escalator steps and free the boy," he said.
He was then rushed to the nearest hospital for treatment.
It was said that the boy had sat down on the escalator steps when his pants were caught, causing both the fabric and the tip of his penis to get stuck in the contraption
The Star Online reported that Operations chief senior officer II Nasir Wahab said the boy, who was with his father at the time, had got on the escalator heading to the third floor.
"The mishap happened when they were reaching the top of the escalator," he was quoted as saying.
"His pants got pulled in at the start, before the tip of his penis got caught as well."
