“My son became trapped in the rear passenger seat belt of my 05 Galant while driving. I pulled over to release the seat belt and it refused to unlock. Every attempt to remove my son from the seat belt caused his breathing to be further cut off, at which time we had no choice but to cut him out of the seat belt.”
