Little lad, two, has to be rescued by firefighters after getting head STUCK in toilet training seat
Oscar Clare's mum Kellie Marie Allen turned round and saw he had wedged the £5 Asda potty firmly around his neck
THIS is the moment a two-year-old boy was rescued by firefighters after he got a toilet training seat stuck over his head.
Little Oscar Clare was in the bathroom when mum Kellie Marie Allen, 27, turned round and saw he had wedged the £5 Asda potty firmly around his neck.
Kellie desperately tried to free the toddler by wetting his hair and even poured oil and butter over his neck but it was stuck fast.
She was eventually forced to drive him to her local fire station where firefighters cut Oscar free from the plastic seat.
The bizarre accident unfolded at 8am on Sunday while Kellie was looking after Oscar at their home in Telford, Shrops.
Single mum Kellie said: "We were in the bathroom and he's got a habit of sticking it on his head.
"I told him to get it off and instead he pulled it further down.
"I tried to get it off and I realised it was stuck. I took him to the front room and sat him down and was trying to pin his ears back and pull it off.
"I had butter and oil on his ears and water and nothing would work.
"At first he thought it was funny but then when he realised it wouldn't come off he started screaming.
"Luckily I managed to get hold of his granddad who lives around the corner and he came and drove us to the fire station.
"We knocked on the door and showed the firefighters Oscar and they were like 'oh that's an unusual start to the day'.
"They tried to pull it over his ears but he was screaming and it obviously wasn't going to come off.
"In the end they used some snippers they usually use to cut little bits of metal and got it off.

"Afterwards they let him sit in a fire engine and gave him a little tour."
