A MAN had to be rescued by fire-fighters after super-gluing his feet to the floor while trying to fix an MP3 player.

Fire crews were called to a house in Maple Court, New Earswick, near York, at about 9.15pm tonight after a report that the 21-year-old man had become stuck by his feet to laminate flooring.

A Fire service spokesman said: "He had broken his I-Pod and he was trying to fix it with superglue when he spilt the glue on the floor and then accidentally stood in it.

"He had become stuck to the floor. Our crews rescued him from the situation and he was taken to hospital to be treated."

The man is understood to have suffered some bleeding to his feet.
