Probably, the stuffed animals attracted too much attention to an Australian child who was in a shopping center, with his family. Little Ethan, three years old, skilled in his ability to move, went inside the arcade to the surprise of his father.
With no way to get out, the boy was trapped inside along with the stuffed animals and the mechanical arm. Given the inability to leave, the police arrived at the scene and determined that the best option was to break the protective glass.
In the video you can hear how the agents and the father himself ask Ethan to move away from the front so that the glass does not reach him after the impact. The events occurred in the city of Brisbane, in the Australian state of Queensland.
