Scruit Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 http://www.live5news.com/story/18580041/officials-seek-parents-who-put-baby-in-washing-machineOfficials from Camden, NJ are looking to identify and speak to the parents who put their baby in a washing machine at a laundromat. The incident at the Federal Laundromat happened on May 11, and the Camden Courier Post reports that authorities want to make sure the child isn't hurt. They are not looking to press charges against the parents. Looks like the kid was interested in the washing machine and the father offered the kid to sit iside. When he closed the door the machine started up and started filling with water. Not clear if it was tumbling. After being unable to door (automatic lock) they ran to get an attendant who cut power to the machine from the back, but still had to wait out the door lock timeout. Child said to be ok.Video link is broken, so I found another copy on youtube:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PjGtPiM_iO0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
