In a recent incident in Canton, Massachusetts, a man named Nathan Dorosario allegedly violated a restraining order by taking his toddler from a daycare, leading to a police pursuit that extended into Rhode Island. The event, which occurred yesterday, ended with Dorosario's arrest in Pawtucket and the safe return of the child, according to local authorities.

A response operation was initiated after Nathan Dorosario, who had received a restraining order just two days earlier, took his 18-month-old son from a daycare where the child's mother is employed. According to NBC Boston, when the child was reported missing around 2:25 p.m., police teams worked together to track the father's phone to establish his location.

A tip about Dorosario's vehicle via a license plate reader played a crucial role, as per the details shared by CBS News Boston. Pawtucket police cornered the scene on Webster Street, where eyewitnesses recounted the apprehension. "I seen a lot of cops out here surrounding a baby and a guy that was holding the baby," Krykette Kowalski stated. "The cops asked the guy to put the baby down, he didn't want to."

"All they did was ask for the baby, they were calm," Kowalski further explained that the suspect, though unwillingly, set the baby down on the ground, leading to the prompt arrival of emergency services. After the incident, the toddler was taken to a hospital for a thorough examination. Meanwhile, Dorosario is being held on a fugitive from justice charge., as noted by officials, in a statement obtained by CBS News Boston.
