Blundering Mark McGowan destroys Cleo Smith’s brand new Barbie shoes while playing with ‘bubbly, sweet’ little girl and her dog in the backyard just hours after she was rescued from the house she was abducted to for 18 days
Western Australian Premier Mark McGowan has admitted destroying Cleo Smith’s brand new shoes while playing with the rescued youngster and her dog.
Mr McGowan visited the four-year-old and her family a day after she was miraculously rescued from a locked Carnarvon house in the early hours of Wednesday morning.
The state leader said he and Cleo ‘did a few high-fives’ before he accidentally stood on one of the little girl’s new Barbie shoes.
‘I owe her a pair of shoes. But gave her the two little police teddies which we named Cameron and Rod,’ Mr McGowan told a press conference on Thursday afternoon.
