Gun-toting cops on drug raid bust 2-year-old's birthday party

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. -- Police on a drug raid burst into a home during a toddler's birthday party, startling children who were getting ready to eat cake when the gun-toting officers crashed the party. Amid wails from children and a few parents -- and a phone ringing incessantly with prospective drug buyers -- officers arrested a pregnant woman and accused her of selling marijuana from the house.

Shannon Hills Police Chief Richard Friend, who led the raid, found parents about to light candles on a cake adorned with green and white cartoon characters and a big "2" on top.

''The kids were up in high-chairs eating pizza, and the cake was just about to be lit and cut when we kicked the party off a little early,'' Friend said Tuesday. ''We got them something they wish they could return.''

maybe those kids will finally learn the meaning of "not fair"
