Middletown – 11:29 a.m. -- The makers of “Toy Soldier” must not have counted on the curiosity and agility of a 2-year-old like Angelia Romero when they designed their toy-vending machine.

The little girl was shopping with her grandmother at National Wholesale Liquidators yesterday afternoon when she crawled inside a trap door at the bottom and found herself stuck in a Plexiglas-sided chute, surrounded by stuffed animals.

She stood in one place for half an hour, crying hysterically, as store employees and rescue workers tried free her. After half an hour, firefighters finally pried open and shattered a glass side to the machine.

4. Good thing they got the machine opened up.

If they had to use that little remote-control crane, they'd have never pulled her out.
