Bizarre moment firefighters rescue 18-year-old prisoner who became stuck while trying to escape through a hole in his jail cell door

This is the shocking moment a prisoner got stuck in a hole in a jail cell door while attempting to escape.

The startling incident occurred Thursday afternoon in the Brazilian town of Balneário Piçarras after cops at the local Civil Police precinct discovered the 18-year-old trapped in the door.

Brazilian news outlet G1 reported that the firemen first covered the door in oil to smooth it out and to prevent it from completely breaking apart as they tried to extract the detainee while his hips dangled in midair.

The fire department was called to a Balneário Piçarras, Brazil, Civil Police station house after an 18-year-old prisoner tried to escape by sliding through a hole in a jail cell door. The rescue took nearly three hours

Video footage filmed by authorities at the station house showed a firemen using a hydraulic tool, known as the Jaws of Life, to pry the teenager out of the door.

The fireman carefully cut through the door as another firefighter served as his guide while the detainee's feet were resting on a chair.

It took the fire department nearly three hours to free him.

Police Chief Rodolfo Farah told Carneiro News that the suspect had been in custody for not even two hours when he tried to flee the precinct.

He was also busted for allegedly trying to break into a commercial warehouse, but didn't steal anything.

The teen remained in police custody at the same station house after he was rescued.

Ministers have been told that Phase One of controversial rail line HS2 could cost £800million more than planned. It comes just six months after a budget increase saw total predicted costs for the first stage of the high-speed line soar by £20.6billion to £43billion. In a written statement to Parliament, HS2 Minister Andrew Stephenson said half of this figure is due to preparation of the route for construction involving 'more significant challenges than anticipated'. This includes the need to remove more asbestos than expected. Another 'significant cost pressure' worth £400 million has also been identified during the development of designs for Euston station.

It came as the Children’s Commissioner told how pupils had experienced ‘real trauma’ during successive lockdowns. Sajid Javid said he was seeking ‘fresh advice’ on the current policy where children self-isolate, which sees up to 250,000 pupils miss school every day Dame Rachel de Souza described the class bubble system as ‘very very restrictive’, adding: ‘I think everybody would like it if we could get back to normal, as soon as possible.’ Former health minister Steve Brine tol...
