Elkton, MARYLAND -- Police in Maryland are on the hunt for the perpetrator of what appears to be an April Fools' prank that left a man glued to a toilet at a Wal-Mart store.

If caught, the jokester who doused the seat with glue at the Elkton Wal-Mart on March 31 could face second-degree assault charges, said Lt. Matthew Donnelly of the Elkton Police Department.

Police, along with the Singerly Fire Company and the Cecil County Paramedics, were called to the scene at about 7 p.m.

There, they found the 48-year-old victim, who called for help after realizing the sticky situation he was in when he tried -- and failed -- to stand up and leave the superstore's restroom, Donnelly said.

It took responders 15 minutes to remove the victim from the stall, but they were unable to disconnect the toilet seat from his body, Donnelly said.

Instead, the victim was taken to Union Hospital of Cecil County, where the seat was detached. He left with only minor injuries to his buttocks, Donnelly said.

Police do not suspect that the victim was specifically targeted, but that the incident was a random prank, Donnelly said. They have not received reports of glue-laden toilet seats since.

Posted in the strange news thread.

Didn't this happen at a Home Depot a year or two ago?

Hmm.. mysterious liquid on the toilet seat. Meh, probably just urine so I'm safe.

Yeah, Im just gonna sit right down on that.


Then again, were talking about someone who was about to drop a deuce at Walmart.


Seriously?

Frito pie will go right through ya.

If I ever had to drop a 2 at WalMart, I would seriously quadruple bag that toilet seat.

Yes, but it was a little longer than that ago. I worked there from 2004 to 2008 and it happened while I was there (not in my store). Maybe '06 or '07.

How do you not notice Superglue. It has to look enough like semen to make a user pause before sitting.

When you're prairie dogging it, nothing will stop you

Only pause?

squat

I'd shit my pants before sitting down on a uninspected Wal-mart toilet seat.

+1 trillion

Fixed.

This. Unless it's in my own home, you can be sure that, at the very least, I've wiped that sucker down.

I'll never have this problem since I refuse to pass through Wal-mart doors
