Stranger unplugs bounce house with kids inside it
(WVEC) — A Port St. Lucie, Florida mother is terribly upset after she says someone pulled the plug and deflated a bounce house while kids were playing on it in her backyard.
The surveillance video capturing this at her daughter’s birthday party is now trending on social media. The mother tells us that two kids were brought to the hospital, one for distress, the other to check for injuries after he had to be pulled out from under the heavy plastic.
Video taken shows the bounce house losing air, and collapsing, when over a dozen kids, ages 2 and 3, were playing on it.
“We were very nervous about the kids because it was extremely hot, and they were trapped inside the bounce house,” mother Deborah Romero said.
Romero says parents rushed over to help.
“We couldn’t really reach for all the kids, and we unfortunately had to pull one of the kids by his leg,” Romero said.
Deborah says a family member followed the cord from the bounce house, and noticed it was unplugged.
