KUALA LUMPUR: It doesn’t pay to play with mum’s pot and pans as a six-year-old boy found out.
In the 8pm incident at his house at Taman Ampang Indah here yesterday, Khalish Akil Hassan Basri was playing with the open lid of a pot when his neck got stuck in the hole meant for the glass cover.
His mother called the Fire Department after she failed to remove the lid from her son’s head.
Fire and Rescue Department director Norazam Khamis said eight firefighters from the Ampang Fire and Rescue Station went to house after receiving the call.
“They used special tools to cut the lid and free the boy,” he said.
