still sounds contrived. I would expect that kind of dialogue from a kid acting in a 1950's era show like Leave It to Beaver.

Not saying it isn't. A 5 year old could point to where a person went and tell the police they saw them though.

Yeah and probably what happened is the kid spilled the beans like “but I just saw her in the laundry room, mommy!” And they turned the story it into “hero little child stands up and does the right thing despite the criminality and moral decay of their surroundings. There’s still good in this world!”
