VIDEO: This Little Irish Lad Has a Creative Explanation for his Sister’s Haircut

"Who's telling lies?"

Rebecca McKnight

There’s hardly an Irish household out there without a story about the time one sibling gave another an impromptu haircut. 

Young Cayden Moran may have cut sister Sadie’s hair off, but God loves a trier and this kid is not admitting anything without a fight.

Parents – if Cayden is to be believed, there is a nefarious hair-cutting policeman on the loose. Proceed with caution!

As for the actual turn of events, Cayden’s uncle Karen tells us that the 3-year-old and his little sister were entertaining themselves while their mother made lunch. In a phrase every mother or father will understand, she decided everything was “too quiet”. When mother Nikki went into their room, Cayden had his sister sitting on a chair with the scissors in his hand and the hair on the floor.

When his mammy asked what happened his reply was “It was the policeman mam. Quick, he went that way – get him!”

This funny footage was captured later the same day in his nanny and grandad’s house as they try to get him to confess.

Hat Tip: Huge thanks to Cayden’s aunt Karen Murray for sending this one our way. If you’ve spotted something weird or wonderful you think should feature on Her.ie, get in touch! You’ll find us on Twitter here, on Facebook here or you can drop us a line to [email protected]!
