Train-Toilet Dope Mu$t Do His Duty

The man riding a Metro-North train who dropped his cell phone into the bowl and got his arm stuck trying to retrieve it will have to pay "many thousands of dollars" for the damage done to the train, officials said yesterday.

Edwin Gallart, 41, tried to get his phone after dropping it into the potty Thursday on the 6:19 p.m. Harlem line train that had just left Grand Central Terminal.
...
Cops and firefighters boarded the train at the Fordham Road station, dismantled the commode and freed Gallart. The cell phone was never found.

"When the moron's arm went down the crapper, so did our evening commute," Brucker said.

But here's the best part:

At Gallart's home in Wakefield yesterday, a woman opened the front door and tossed a foul-smelling brown liquid at reporters outside.

How about an alternative theory - there was no cell phone and these folks merely have an er, ... unhealthy fixation.
