Capitals’ Ward gets stuck in bathroom stall

An incident Saturday morning "stalled" Washington Capitals forward Joel Ward.

Upon a bathroom break in a Dallas hotel lobby ahead of the Capitals game against the Stars, the 32-year-old found himself trapped to the point that he took to Twitter for help.

Thankfully, his teammates and staff were able to rescue him, however not before tweeting a few pictures of the incident.

"Basically we had the whole Dallas SWAT team come in and still couldn’t open the door," Ward told The Washington Post. "The latch on the inside where I was would turn but the bolt wouldn’t move, I think it was stripped. The bolt was just chilling."
