NYPD police kill baby in breast feeding incident

Don't believe everything you read on the interwebs:

http://www.snopes.com/media/notnews/babydead.asp

Claim: A NYPD police officer killed a baby following a breastfeeding dispute with the child's mother.

FALSE

Example: [Collected via e-mail, August 2014]

Did an NYPD officer kill a baby after a breast feeding incident? There is an article claiming that it happened, that was posted on Facebook.

Facebook, oh so then it has to be true
 
I hate Facebook "news stories".
My wife had told me two " news stories" from Facebook.

First was they were raising the drinking age to 25. The second was that Tom Brady got traded.

I told her to stop getting her news from Facebook

On a semi-regular basis my mother forwards emails regarding topics like this as sort of a PSA for the family. Usually comes with her strong statements of source veracity and dire consequences if the advice is not followed. My favorite was 'Don't eat meat from the Halal Meat Company'. I couldn't talk her off of that soapbox without a link to Snopes.

I get a kick out of these, even if I fall for it. However, even with the power of the internet I don't think anything will ever top the 1938 War of the Worlds broadcast. Truly epic! [rofl]
