I have so many questions, Tübingen.

“A total of 22 rescue workers with special equipment were deployed to the scene in the southern Germany city of Tuebingen on Friday to free the 20-year-old but a “forceps delivery was not necessary. We were able to pull the victim out with our bare hands after about 30 minutes.”
