Child Breaks Into Police Station And Scream: “Please, Arrest My Father!”

A Shocking Arrival at Saint John

Everything was fine in a police station until a little boy arrived shouting, “Please arrest my father!”

What nobody knew was that the secret behind that sentence would shock everyone to the core. On a hot Tuesday morning, tranquility settled in the police station in the small town of Saint John.

The fans rotated slowly, trying to alleviate the heat while the police officers had their coffee and reviewed some reports. It was a typical quiet morning for the town, but the stillness was broken when the doors of the police station swung wide.

The figure of a little boy with dark hair and frightened eyes stood out as he ran into the police station. His eyes, swollen from crying, searched the room as if looking for something or someone.

He was Henry, a six-year-old boy, small for his age and clearly terrified. Without hesitation, the little boy made his way to the reception desk, his tiny feet tapping against the ceramic floor.

His little hands gripped the counter tightly as he tried to get the attention of any adult who could help him. “Please arrest my father!”

His trembling, desperate voice echoed through the room, attracting everyone’s attention. The policemen, initially disconcerted, exchanged looks of bewilderment.

Some put down their coffee cups; others put their papers aside. The statement had caused an immediate stir.

He looked at the policeman and repeated, his voice full of anguish: “Please arrest him! He can’t stay free!”

Officer Mary, a young policewoman with a gentle gaze, came running. The woman, hearing the boy’s cries from her office, came to intervene with a motherly look on her face.

She picked Henry up and took him to a nearby bench. “Calm down, calm down. Come here, sit down.”

The officer crouched down to his eye level, trying to convey some comfort. “It’s all right now, little one. You’re safe here,” she said softly, running her hands through his hair trying to calm him down.

Henry had his little heart beating fast. His shoulders were shaking, and tears were starting to stream down his face.

The Search for Concrete Answers

The policewoman continued talking to him. “What happened, darling? There’s no need to cry. You’re safe now. Do you want to tell me what happened?”

Her words, although tender, didn’t seem to reach the frightened little boy. He clung to Mary’s shirt, his eyes still wide and teary.

The hall of the police station was now filled with a mixture of confusion and concern. Every policeman was exchanging worried glances and muttering: “What has that boy’s father done?”

However, it was clear that Henry’s words carried an unsustainable weight for someone of his age. Officer Mary, still kneeling next to the boy, tried to ask one more time.

“Come on, darling,” she said, trying to dry the tears on his face.

“Take a deep breath.”

Sergeant Paul, a big man with gray hair and a neatly trimmed mustache, stood up from his desk. His gaze was firm but also carried a touch of concern.

He walked slowly over to the two of them, trying to understand the situation. “Good morning, young man. What are you doing here all alone? Why did you come here?”

The little boy’s breathing was heavy, interspersed with sobs that made his anguish evident. Even surrounded by protectors, he seemed to feel vulnerable and frightened.

Little by little, more police officers, curious and worried, began to crowd around the boy, forming a semi-circle. The sergeant, despite his imposing posture, showed genuine concern and asked: “Come on, buddy, you can tell us what happened.”

Henry tried to answer, but his words came out garbled and confused. “He to be arrested! He’s gonna go to jail!”

This increased the sense of fear in everyone present. The police officer and the sergeant, seeing that all the agents were curious and crowding around, worried about scaring the little one and decided to take him to the interrogation room.

“Come on, sweetheart,” said the woman, lifting him up cautiously.

“Let’s go inside and have a chat. Let’s go.”

The boy calmed down when he sat down on the chair in the interrogation room, and the policewoman asked again. “What did your father do, Henry? Did your father hurt you or do anything bad?”

Mary asked, trying to extract some concrete information from the little boy. His face contorted into an expression of frustration.

It was clear that he wanted to tell something, but the words seemed to escape him. “Daddy gets angry sometimes.”

His voice disappeared at the end of the sentence, leaving a trail of uncertainty and speculation in the air. “What do you mean, son?” the man asked.
