No, not a National Enquirer headline.

MOSCOW — A 7-year-old boy is recovering after his finger was broken by a chess-playing robot in Russia last week at an event in Moscow.

Sergey Lazarev, the president of the Moscow Chess Federation told the state news agency TASS, that the incident happened Tuesday at the Moscow Chess Open after the child rushed the robot, NBC and CNN reported.

Lazarev told the Russian news outlet that after making a move, the child did not give the robot enough time to answer, so when the boy hurried it, the robot grabbed him, The Washington Post reported.
