A man who was pulled over by the police allegedly used his baby as a human shield in a purported attempt to hold off the officers.
Last Monday, the Okaloosa County Sheriff’s Office reported that officers were pursuing a suspect on Interstate 10 that they believed was involved in a situation relating to “a child custody/Baker Act issue.”
When law enforcement officers succeeded in getting the driver of the vehicle, identified as 31-year-old Zachary Taylor McKinney from Defuniak Springs, to obey their command to stop and interact with them they spotted an infant in the car with the man.
