This is the moment a young girl got a box stuck on her head - after putting it on as a crown to impersonate a Disney princess.

Breeland Lopez, 5, was diagnosed with autism in her early years, which can have a severe affect on her behaviour.

Her mother Heather Lopez, 42, was moving herself and her family into her new home when she noticed Breeland with the box on her head.

At first she laughed when Breeland said the box was her crown and she was a Disney princess - but after telling her to take it off, it became quickly evident she couldn't.

In the video, Bee's dad, Eduardo Lopez, 43, can be seen wiggling the box - trying to remove it from around her head.

After a few minutes, it finally came loose and Breeland was freed.

Heather, from Central Arizona, said: "We had been moving into our new house and the box was in a pile of things.

"I was hanging clothes up and when I turned around she had put it on like a crown -because after all she is a princess!

"But the box had somehow slipped over her braids and it had got stuck.

"Daddy had to come to the rescue and now she'll know not to do that again - it's all a learning experience!"
