Teenage e-bike riders' prank goes horrifically wrong leaving baby in hospital - as her mother hits out
A five-month-old baby girl was rushed to hospital with thick, white powder covering her eyes after an e-bike rider sprayed her with a fire extinguisher. Tiffani Teasdale was driving with her five-month-old baby, Pixie, on High Street in Sippy Downs, on Queensland 's Sunshine Coast, when they stopped at a traffic light about 7.45pm on Sunday. As they waited, two teenagers on e-bikes pulled up next to their car, stuck a fire extinguisher through its rear window and set it off before quickly riding away. 'The car just filled up with gas and white powder straight away,' Ms Teasdale told ABC News. '[Pixie] was completely covered in white powder and just looked like she was in shock, she wasn't even crying.' The horrified mother rushed to hospital where Pixie had to have 100ml of saline solution put in her eyes to clean off the chemical powder. 'The doctors had to hold her down for me because it was the most horrible thing I've ever heard ... no one should have to go through that,' Ms Teasdale said. Pixie was discharged from hospital early Monday morning with her mother urged to continue monitoring her symptoms. The shocked mother described the attack on a local community group. She said while she was 'all for young having fun', the prank went too far and could have caused Pixie's eyes severe and maybe permanent damage. She said the child's face remained red, her eyes were swollen and her breathing was 'wheezy' once she left hospital. 'I hope whoever has done this sees this posts and realises there will be consequences for your actions,' she wrote online. 'A five-second dopamine rush is not worth someone's life. 'I could only imagine If this had been someone with respiratory issues. Do better.' She was later alerted of a fire extinguisher discovered down the road from where she and her daughter were sprayed, which she will take to police. The fire extinguisher left a thick coat of chemical powder all over the family car's interior and destroyed Pixie's pram, toys and nappy bag. A local car detailing business, Grime Busters, has since offered to clean the damage for free. Queensland Police said it is aware of the incident and investigating.
