Odd Reason Dad On Walk With Baby Had Cops Called On Him

The dog days of August are upon us and temperatures continue to be warm. Folks take advantage of the warm temps to snooze under the shade of trees, to exercise during their lunch breaks or just to spend time together. Helen H. Richardson/The Denver Post (Photo By Helen H.

Have you ever been so tired from life that when you walk down the street you look like you might be homeless? I know I have been so disheveled that I could have been mistaken for someone in need of help. No sleep, stressed, no care of what you're wearing? It happens to all of us. For one man, he had the cops called on him while on a walk with his daughter because people thought he was homeless.
According to NBCLA, "A Huntington Beach father whose neighbor called police after mistaking him as a homeless man is using his art to change the conversation around homelessness and parenthood. Chapman Hamborg drew attention last month after posting a video clip on social media, showing his interaction with police following a walk with his new infant daughter, Florence. The artist with a man bun and baggy clothes was on his second walk of the morning with Florence in the baby wrap carrier when someone followed him and called police. “Were you going for a walk? Is this baby or something? Your neighbors saw you and thought you were homeless,” Hamborg recalled the officers’ questions after they knocked on his door. “Nope, not homeless. Just a tired dad.”"
The lesson to be learned here I guess is make sure you check the mirror before you leave! But, you don't expect people to really judge you that deeply when you're just taking a walk. I mean, this guy must have looked pretty rough for someone to think he was in some sort of trouble, or needed assistance.
