Deputy Fire Commissioner Chris Miller said Shannon Hunter, 31, was stuck inside the toilet Sunday night at a former Harold's Furniture store, the Lebanon Daily News reported Tuesday.

He would only say he needed to use the bathroom, and he claimed he fell in the toilet. When I asked him why he was naked, he just shrugged his shoulders." Miller said rescuers, who wore biohazard suits during the operation, spent about 25 minutes sawing away pieces of the plastic toilet before Hunter was freed. "He was wedged in tight, so we systematically had to cut pieces of the toilet away so we did not cause further harm to him," Miller said. "After he was released, the subject then had to be decontaminated before he could be presented to (paramedics) so he could be evaluated and treated for scrapes and abrasions around his hips."
