    I'm seeing reports that he may have been accused of something else, but how they handle the situation is still worthy of debate.
    Why don't they appear concerned about the child?

    So kids don't ride for free on public Transportation? If anything dude should have hopped off payed the fare got back on and went about his way. Know he worried about who has his baby girl and if he about to get shot over some train ride.

    Based on whats shown.

    As a father, i would not use my child as a shield nor would i have endangered her in such a manner.

    Time and place for everything.

    I dont see a victim of police brutality here. I see an ? hiding behind his child in hopes that his voice will be heard even though it was a situation he created.

    Valid point. Where should he have placed the child? Should the police have assured him of the child's safety?

    He shouldn't have been in that situation in the first place.

    Only stupid questions are the ones not asked.

    "Hey officer do i have to pay her fare if i sit her in my lap?"

    How hard is that?

    That is literally why they are there.

    Understandable...
    But what should he have done with the kid here?

    apparently the police Chief is even questioning their behavior...
    "The supervisor of the officer said that there was a conversation this morning about why didn't he just retreat and step away — there was a small child," said Nestel. "Jeopardizing safety of a child just isn't something that we want to do. And the officer felt that if he walked away he thought he would face disciplinary action."

    Nestel confirmed that if a officer engages a fare evader and does not issue a citation, an investigation into the officer's actions would ensue. "But that's a failure on my part," he said. "If he believes he can't use judgment to step away from a situation that's spiraling into something that might justify the safety of a child, that's on me … Force by police is never pleasant to see. Force by police when a person is holding a child is sad and dangerous."

    According to Nestel, the cop and the suspect shook hands and the man admitted that he had acted inappropriately. An internal affairs investigation is underway, but the officer has not been suspended.

    Nestel also asked to the public's help in the investigation — "I'd love to hear from other people on the train who witnessed it," he said — made it very clear that the investigation is not about the fare evader's actions.

    "It's not about him," said Nestel. "This is about us. I'm not going to change how someone in the public deals with the police. I have to change how the police deal with the public."

    I know that you know the bold isn't possible. A stranger can never assure a person of their child's safety.
