Watch: little boy steals the scene at Pope's audience

A 10-year-old boy interrupted Pope Francis' weekly audience on Wednesday after he walked on stage asking for the pontiff's white skullcap.

As priests were making introductory prayers and addresses, the boy rose from the front seats of the auditorium in Vatican City, walked onto the stage and pointed at the pope's skullcap.

He then took the hand of one of the priests and asked again for the Pope's head covering.

The audience erupted in applause when the boy left the stage having been given a skullcap of his own.

After the incident, Francis praised the "spontaneity and freedom" of children.

He noted that the child appeared to have an intellectual disability, and then prayed for him.
