Moon Run fire chief Paul Kashmer said the girl didn't seem upset by the ordeal Wednesday night in the food court at the Mall of Robinson, in Robinson Township. Kashmer said firefighters arrived to find "the cutest little girl in a pink outfit sucking her binky inside with the other toys."
The girl apparently climbed up the chute into which the coin-operated crane drops prizes. Kashmer used a tool to pry open a door on the machine to reach the girl.
The vending company hasn't been identified.
