Emergency services rushed to the city council car park in Parkway today in a bid to free a pensioner, who became trapped between two parked cars.
The victim, in his 70s appeared to have encountered the sticky situation while trying to leave his car at the facility, close to Moulsham Street, at about 11am today (October 27).
Two fire engines, three ambulances and an ambulance response car were called to the scene. Firefighters used airbags and he was eventually freed by 11.40am.
An ambulance spokesman said: "The patient was stuck trying to get out of the car with his leg stuck and the car door open.
