Nebraska Boy Presumed To Be Missing Found Alive In Bowling Alley Claw Machine [View all]

Child Gets Stuck Inside Claw Crane Machine

When a woman discovered her 3-year-old son was missing from her apartment...

A missing three-year-old Lincoln boy was discovered in a claw machine at a bowling alley Monday night.

Lincoln Police Department got a call Monday about a missing boy. His mother told police he'd slipped out an unlocked door of their apartment while she was in the bathroom.

After arriving at the scene, police were told a child matching the boy's description was at Madsen's Bowling & Billiards, 4700 Dudley St., across the street from where the boy lives.

An LPD sergeant went to investigate and saw the three-year-old boy had crawled inside the claw machine at the bowling alley. He was uninjured and playing happily with the stuffed animals in the machine, said Katie Flood, public information officer with LPD. Madsen's employees, along with a vending machine company, helped remove the child safely.
