The adventure lived by the mayor Pierre Huart this Tuesday at the start of the evening is likely to cause a lot of laughter, this Wednesday in the corridors and offices of the town hall. The alot mayor, who had lingered in his office when the employees had finished their day at 5 p.m., found himself stuck in the toilet. The guard team of the works department had to use the strong way to unlock the door!
“Finding myself stuck in the town hall because the municipal secretary had closed the front door without realizing that I was without a key inside, it happened to me once when I was an alderman. But being stuck in the toilet, that’s a first!” Laughed the mayor, Tuesday around 6 p.m.
An hour earlier, when the staff had left the premises and he was still in his office, the mayor went to the upstairs toilets, which are reserved for staff. So that the public does not have access to it, the main door opens by typing a code. But the device being a bit capricious lately, this access door remains open.
“To make matters worse, our concierge was on leave”
“I don’t know what happened, probably a draft, and it closed when I was inside, says Pierre Huart. I did not manage to reopen it. The staff was no longer there and the only window overlooks the cloister, where there is obviously no one following 5 p.m. To make matters worse, our concierge was off on Tuesday…”
Those who know Pierre Huart will no doubt say that with the intensive use he makes of his mobile phone, both for selfies and for phone calls or messages on social networks, he had to have a number handy. to call someone who might deliver him.
“Except that when you go to the toilet, you don’t think to take your mobile phone: mine had remained in my office. I really saw myself spending the night in the toilets of the town hall!”, He completes .
At the crowbar
Luckily, two employees who had stayed a little longer to complete their work passed through the hallway when the situation seemed hopeless. The mayor was able to alert them by shouting, but they were unable to open the recalcitrant door either. This is how the guard service had to be called to the rescue, and the door had to be forced open… with a crowbar!
