That, unfortunately, does not sound like an Onion headline.

The Rules
Posts must be:
- Links to news stories from...

- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.
And that’s basically it!

Fair enough. I originally figured the absurdity of the situation might be enough to push it over the line, but on second thought, it probably needs another bit of absurdity or irony to really sound like an Onion headline.
If there's a consensus that it doesn't belong, I'll delete it.
I don't think it's worth deleting necessarily. I was just making a jab of my own.
It does sound like FloridaMan however. Florida... Child?
It certainly does after reading the other headline about the 3 yo shooting the 1 yo with a gun. This seems satirical of that headline while being real.
