Distraught Dad

A man arrested in a domestic disturbance tearfully hands over his infant to a waiting police officer. He was allegedly in a poor state of mind when he threatened to leave his home with the child. In a situation like this, you must be ready for anything to happen.

Every journalist must have some unforgettable emotional moments. This was one of yours, I guess. But still, you managed to grap a dramatic capture. The man's painful expression is hard to forget. ~VvV~

I hope they were reunited later in life, sadly I doubt it.

life is really hard on an individual level. too much worry for big business, and not enough for the human person.
