Virginia Walmart Suspects White Father of Kidnapping Biracial Daughters
A Virginia couple says they were shocked when a police officer came to their home after they returned from running errands to question whether or not they were their children’s parents.
Joseph, a white man who didn’t want his last name revealed, and his black wife Keana, told Fox5DC that they were outraged after the policeman told them a security guard at their local Walmart had suspected Joseph of kidnapping his three young biracial daughters.
“He asks us very sincerely, ‘Hey, I was sent here by Walmart security. I just need to make sure that the children that you have are your own,’†Joseph told reporters.
The couple was told that a customer was concerned because they saw the children with Joseph and “didn’t think that they fit.”
