A disturbing video circulating on social media shows a Texas man using a 3-month-old baby to wipe snow off the windshield of his Hyundai Elantra, sparking outrage online. The footage, which went viral on TikTok and was shared on Facebook, shows the man holding the bundled-up infant while clearing snow. Despite the chilling act, the baby, dressed in a thick jacket, appeared unharmed.
The incident occurred during a rare southern blizzard in Texas, which brought heavy snowfall to the region. Local authorities were alerted, and Port Arthur police quickly launched an investigation. Police chief Tim Duriso confirmed the baby’s age and mentioned that two women, one believed to be the mother, were present at the scene. Although the baby was checked and found safe, the case is under review by the Jefferson County district attorney’s office for potential child endangerment charges.
Social media users expressed their shock and disgust, with many questioning why such an act was filmed. One commenter wrote, “Why do these people always film their crimes?” Meanwhile, others expressed disbelief, initially doubting whether it was a real baby.
Duriso condemned the act, emphasizing the importance of child safety over social media stunts. Authorities are urging the public to avoid such dangerous behavior and are continuing to investigate the incident to ensure accountability.
