Boy Frozen In Ice Cube Machine At Service Station
In Evanston Illinois an eight year old boy Antonio Hand froze to death inside a commercial ice cube vending machine at a service station. Police said the lock was broken and he crawled inside to retrieve ice cubes. The door closed trapping him and his shoes were off suggesting he used them to bang for help. The door’s insulation muffled his screams. The boy was reported missing by his mother Thursday night.
