BOSTON (CBS) -- A toddler decked out in a police officer costume, riding in a Massachusetts State Police toy cruiser recently stole the show at Halloween parade in Pennsylvania.

"He came (in) second to a witch on what we believe is a unregistered broom," quipped police on their Facebook page. "Griffin is still investigating that one!"

The youngster, who lives in Pennsylvania, appears to be wearing a dark blue police officer's uniform, sucking on his blue-and-white pacifier, while sitting inside his Little Tikes Cozy Coupe with the State Police logo emblazoned on the doors.
