A man had to be rescued from a toilet cubicle in Knaresborough today.
This is the second time firefighters have been called out to free a man from public conveniences in the town in the last six months.
Today's incident took place on Waterside just after 8am.

The previous incident took place in the York Place car park in August last year.
