As always, there's the highly edited video, and there's the true story.

The video, which was seemingly edited in several places, cuts to another officer holding a taser gun, who also tries to restrain the father.

A witness outside commands the officer to release the man. “He’s got his son with him, bro,” he says. The father’s hat falls off his head as he is forced to the grass. “Get off of that baby!” a woman is heard screaming in the video.
The post details that earlier that day, a 28-year-old woman had called the police to report that her baby’s father had assaulted her, damaged her possessions and took off with their child. When officers found the father at a bus stop with the baby, they tried to detain him for an investigation, but he held the baby between himself and the deputies.

A back-up officer (presumably holding the taser gun in the video) told the man to stop resisting but he wouldn’t listen. “The officers used the least amount of force possible to compel the suspect to comply,” reads the post.

The father was charged with Domestic Assault, Property Damage, Resisting Arrest, and “numerous” outstanding warrants. Afterward, the child was examined by paramedics and returned to its mother.
