Legal Question in Consumer Law in California

If You Break Something In A Store

If you accidently break something in a store can the merchant make you pay for the item or keep the money you have paid for another item and not give you the item that you really paid for? There was a sign that said do not touch but my son touched it anyway and broke it.
