Nebraska toddler wanted to play with handcuffs, his busy dad handed him a pair. They he had to call the police: ‘Toddlers are feral creatures’

It is not every day that a parent has to call the police to help their toddler out of a pair of handcuffs, but that is exactly what happened to Chance Sparks in La Vista, Nebraska. He captured the situation in a video on TikTok that first shows a woman comforting a young child whose feet are locked in handcuffs. As the video progresses, you can see a police car pulling up to the scene, followed by an officer who steps in to unlock the cuffs.

The camera then pans over to a sheepish-looking man, and Sparks asks, “Jake! Will you give toddlers handcuffs anymore?” The man simply mouths the word, “Nope.” This man is Sparks’ friend and co-worker, who was once a corrections officer. Per Newsweek, Sparks’ 4-year-old son became curious as the men hung out and asked to play with his handcuffs.
