Police put shackles and handcuffs on a four-year-old little boy for unceasing hysteria and even took him to police station, Greene County, Virginia, USA.
An odd incident occurred back in October, when the principal of the primary school failed to calm the toddler down and called police. According to police reports, the boy allegedly threw blocks, climbed over desks, hit, scratched, and kicked the deputy.
Unable to gain control of a 4-year-old, police offciers handcuffed him for the boy and other people’s safety. After awhile in police station they took the handcuffs off him and put the leg shackles instead.
When the boy’s mother came to pick up her son, she was told her son was taken to police station. The dumbfounded woman rushed to police and released her baby.
“My son is a very loving, caring, protective little boy. He deserves to go to school and feel safe and know that he’ll come back home to his mommy. He won’t be carted off like a criminal,” an angry woman said.
Psychologists say that that the use of shackles and handcuffs on a four-year-old could be highly traumatizing to a child and have long-term consequences.
