Call it “claw and order.”
A Missouri police officer is being called a hero after he made a grab-and-go rescue by clawing back a young child trapped inside a popular arcade game.
According to the St. Charles County Police Department, Officer Brown was enjoying an evening off-duty with his family at Lucky Strike bowling alley in St. Peters last week when he spotted a young child trapped inside an arcade claw machine.
“Armed with courage, nerves of steel and approximately $4, Officer Brown sprung into action,” the department said in a Facebook post.
