Texas girl trapped in spinning washing machine at laundromat

9:39am EDT

AUSTIN Texas (Reuters) - A 5-year-old girl was hospitalized on Wednesday after she was trapped in a laundromat washing machine for several minutes and spun at high speeds, police said.

The girl had extensive injuries but was expected to survive the incident Tuesday in a laundromat in Pasadena, about 10 miles (16 km) southeast of Houston, they said

"She was tumbling pretty fast in there," Pasadena police spokesman Vance Mitchell told Houston TV station KHOU.

"One person walked by and said they saw something flopping around in there. They thought it was just a dress or something because it was moving pretty fast," Mitchell said.

Police were unsure how the girl got trapped. The said just before the incident, a customer had tried to use the machine and was given a refund because it was not working properly.

Why is there no mention of the mother? Hmm?
Sounds like the girl may have been put in there intentionally. Sicko's.

How horrible for the little girl.  And where was her parent or guardian?   I wonder if the laundromat had a video system installed that they could review?

The laundromat I go to has a video surveillance system.  There have been attempted break-ins and the homeless like to use the single bathroom there on a daily basis, so they had video cameras put in a couple of years ago.
