Orlando, FL – Waterbridge Elementary school was less than 100 yards away from the strangely-placed toy. The scene took on an almost comical tone as a real bomb robot faced off against what turned out to be a Hasbro toy robot called Butterscotch that sells for about $350.
Full story – HERE
The detonation of the pony is at 56 seconds! ( It felt wrong to type that LOL )

That made my day. Though at first I thought it said “WTF news.”
Poor kid! Let’s hope she wasn’t watching her pony get shredded on the TV.
“Sorry about Butterscotch, little girl, but next time you’ll think twice before you leave it unattended, won’t you?”
What makes you think it was a girl?….(sniff, sniff)
haha yea a lesson learned! She must have played hard with that thing, it sounded like it was in pretty bad shape with stuff hanging out of it (which was one cause for the scare apparently).
[…] Mom: “NO!“ […]
Makes you think the guy in your previous post has a heck of a point. I wonder what that little self-destructing robot costs???
I watched that live on CNN; and my giggle box was kicked right over by the image of a bomb-squaddie in full armor backing away slowly from the toy pony…
haha yea that’s so awesome
In the immortal words of Lewis Grizzard.
“Shoot low boys, their ridding shetland ponies.”
haha that’s funny
Truly, the terrorists have won.
Yea makes you think what will be next… “OMG police! There is a substance stuck to my car tire that looks like it could be plastic explosives.. send the bomb squad.” Bomb squad: “Well it’s almost for sure just chewing gum, but we will blow up the car just to make sure.” :P
