BERLIN (AP) - A 91-year-old German man was rescued by police and fire crews Tuesday from a sticky situation.
The retiree from the eastern city of Magdeburg had been taking advantage of good spring weather to re-tar the roof of his garden house when he slipped and became glued to the structure.
Rescuers were able to free the man, whose name was not released, by prying him loose - bit by bit - from the gooey mess.
Authorities said the man was unharmed, but his clothes were a write-off.
No one could say if he was fleeing from raccoons ......
