Good Samaritan Beaten After Attempting to Help Lost Toddler Find Parents
http://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/...m_npd_nn_fb_nn

A good Samaritan was mistaken for a kidnapper — and beaten by the parents — in a Florida park after trying to help a lost toddler, police said.

The 2-year-old had become separated from her folks during a softball game on Saturday at Southwest Sports Complex in Lakeland, and was spotted by a man at the park with his friends, according to a police incident report published Sunday.

Believing she was lost, the man asked the child where her parents were and walked around the premises with her in hopes she could point them out.

But when the child's father was alerted by bystanders that his daughter was being led away by a stranger, the well-intentioned act was mistaken for a kidnapping attempt.

"I saw this man with my daughter in his hands walking toward the parking lot. What would you do?" the father told NBC affiliate WFLA in a phone interview. "I wanted to kill him!"

Thinking they were stopping a crime, the father and two friends approached the stranger: As his friends took the toddler away, the father punched the good Samaritan "probably five or six times," he told WFLA.

"I thought he was trying to take my daughter," the protective dad told the station.

In a 911 call released to the media, the mother also admits to hitting the man who was with her daughter, and says she did not immediately believe that the incident was simply a misunderstanding.

Lakeland Police, on the other hand, said they were confident that the man was just trying to help the girl.

"An independent witness who didn't know the family or anybody said they saw him pointing out different males saying 'is that your father?'" Lakeland Police Sgt. Gary Gross said in an interview with WFLA.

Police also said the good Samaritan had no prior criminal history and that they were able to verify that he had been at the park with friends.

"It’s understandable how parents can possibly be upset in a situation involving a lost child. However, this incident truly involved a good Samaritan trying to assist a lost child finding their parents," the police report read.

Despite the man's innocence, several posts were published on social media defaming his character. Family and friends of the toddler posted the man's name, photo, and place of employment online, calling him a "child predator."

No charges have been filed against the parents.

When contacted by WFLA, the good Samaritan declined to comment, citing safety concerns and telling reporters he'd left town with his family.

"This guy is a father, a local businessman, has two children, was trying to help this child but they turned it completely around," Gross told the station, "And that's not right."

Still, when asked whether he believed the man's innocence, the child's father said no.

"No, hell no, I don't," he said over the phone, "Not at all."

A few months ago, I took my family to an indoor water park. It was pretty packed. My GF and I were on the ramp to the lazy river when a toddler ran by us and down to the lazy river. We looked around and she wasn't being looked after by anyone, although there were several adults close by. Then she started to step down into the water. It was at that point that I decided that I had to do something before a trajedy happened. I ran down to her. And before I grabbed her, I asked everyone around, does she belong to any of you? Nobody claimed her, so I grabbed her up out of the water. About that time, here came the father running down the ramp. He took her, thanked me and said that he had just turned his head for a moment and she was gone. Then he returned to his family. But the story in the OP is exactly why I hesitated. I didn't want anyone to think that I was trying to take their kid.

Yeah, a lot of people abduct children after walking them around to various people and trying to find out if she belongs to them. Just one hell of a long-con right there.

The dude fled town because he's an Indian (dot) in a backwoods Florida shithole where the trailer park emptied and got the mob riled up before he knew what the **** was going on. Remember that the lie makes it around the world twice before the truth has a chance to put its pants on.
Missed that he was Indian. That does change things. I was referring to the Samaritan's friends he came to the park with.

I don't think the guy was trying to abduct. I'm pointing out weird flaws in the news story that could impact heavily any gray area in how this all really went down.

There's no reason ANYONE'S office should have clear view of ANY locker room. WTF?

It took a village when I was a kid. I remember doing my first bump of yay and scoring a Zapp mixed tape after getting lost on Wilie Aikens bobblehead day at a Royals game as a little, little kid. Nobody was mad.

Nah, Rooster is an all right guy. DJ is just taking his initial post and blowing it up for dramatic effect. What he said wasn't very considerate, but isn't worthy of the damning adjective-laden admonishment he's receiving. DJ just get's on a roll sometimes...

If you're a father it's assumed you are a blind rage-monster with no ability to be rational if there's even a chance that someone wants to harm your child.

Really? My own high school was the same way. Football coach's office was in the guy's locker room. Full length windows directly into the locker room.

It was like that in my Junior high in Lee's Summit. Our gym teacher seemed like a real creeper and would always be sitting in that office with that big window while some of the students would shower after class.
