A teenage boy has found himself in a tricky situation after he became trapped inside a claw machine at a North Carolina amusement park, resulting in a rescue operation.
The incident occurred just before 2pm on Sunday at Carowinds Park in Charlotte when the 13-year-old boy, who was not named, attempted to steal items from inside a claw machine game called Cosmic XL Bonus Game, which contained plush prizes, officials have reported.
The Cosmic XL Bonus Game is about 6.5 feet tall, nearly five feet wide and five feet deep, making it much bigger than the average claw game, according to the company’s website.
