Live PD aired an insane segment on Saturday night when a police officer had to wrestle a suspect who was holding onto his infant child as he resisted arrest.

Live PD is an A&E program where police officers are filmed in real time as they fulfill their duties and respond to criminal incidents all over the country. The show is presented by Mediaite founder Dan Abrams with analysis from Tom Morris Jr..

Tonight’s show featured a high speed chase in Richland County, South Carolina which ended after the driver flipped over his car. When an officer went to apprehend the driver, the man ended up flailing his baby around and refused to let go as the officer tried to take him into custody.

The suspect was eventually separated from the child and handcuffed by the officer’s colleagues. Cops attended to the child as the situation was brought under control.

Watch above. Mediaite apologizes for the quality of the video, and we shall update with better footage when it becomes available.
