AUSTIN, Minn. A machine filled with toys must've been awfully tempting to a three-year-old boy. The tot crawled through the toy discharge chute in the Toy Chest claw machine at a Godfather's Pizza in Austin and got stuck amid all the toys.
Fire Chief Dan Wilson said it was one of the funniest things he's ever seen. Wilson was one of three people to respond to the non-emergency call. He says the boy was inside the transparent container playing, smiling and laughing and people were taking his picture with digital cameras.
Firefighters pried the door open to get the boy out.
The child wasn't hurt.

Did the Star Trib just run this story? I remember it from several moths back.
LOL
moths = months
Spell check don't catch stupid.
It's using today's dateline. Maybe this is the second kid to do what so many of us have tried before.
I thought it happened a couple of years ago.
It's the same kid, I remember the photo as well.
You may be thinking of this kid.
