Talk about a sticky situation. A woman in Kentucky had to be taken to the emergency room after finding herself super glued to a Walmart toilet seat.
The unidentified woman was using the restroom in the Monticello store earlier this month when she noticed she couldn't get up, trying for nearly an hour to free herself, the New York Daily News reported.

Paramedics were called to the store after someone heard the woman screaming.
It took them an hour to remove her from the toilet — with the toilet seat still attached to her buttocks. The seat was later removed in the emergency room of a local hospital, according to the Arizona Republic.

"We're looking at it. Right now, I wouldn't be prepared to say which way it was — accident or intention," Monticello Police Chief Ralph Miniard told The Kentucky Post.
This isn't the first time someone has been super glued to a Walmart toilet.
A imilar incident happened to a man in Maryland on March 31, according to The Kentucky Post.
