Tony Two-Toes, circa 2006

Standoff Prompts Daycare Evacuation

A SWAT team was rushed to the 100 block of Phillips Avenue in Odessa Friday morning after receiving reports that two toddlers were engaged in a stand-off over who could play on the sit and spin.

The situation started just after 10 a.m. when Anthony “Tony two-toes” Jones, age 3 and Paul “Paully Brazil nuts” Skinner, age 2 and ½ both attempted to climb onto the daycare’s sit and spin at exactly the same time.

Earlier reports of shots fired inside the daycare center have not been confirmed, though the uneasy standoff continues, according to witnesses.

Police have not been injured, but it was unclear if there were any hostages inside the daycare or if anyone was injured inside.

Authorities described “Tony two-toes” as a short person, approximately 3 years of age, slight build and wearing a pair of dungarees. “Paully Brazil nuts” Skinner has been described as a quiet child, who “…doesn’t ask nothin’ from nobody” according to the daycare center’s director, Mrs. Cranston.

Police were still on the scene and no additional information was immediately released.
