Was It Pushed Or Did It Fall

This tragic sight was seen on the Staffordshire and Worcestershire Canal .......Ashwood to Wombourne .........known only as A.Toy as no formal identification was possible but i think Bob would be an appropriate name .So i ask the question did it fall over board and was missed when it was to later to be fished out ....or was it thrown into the water with a cry of "1 WANT THE I-PAD"........sad
