A trending video has shown the moment a man abducted a baby and used her as a shield as police tried to arrest him.
The video shows the man running with the baby as a police cruiser follows slowly behind.
Two officers disembark and try to get the baby from him.
The moment they come closer to him, the man suspected to be on drugs, runs with the baby back to the police cruiser in a failed bid to hijack it, but one of the policemen catches up with him.
He throws a few punches before fleeing, leaving the baby in the car. Attempts to taser him failed.
The incident reportedly happened in Detroit, United States of America on Thursday.
