CCTV footage shows a man stepping off a train to smoke a cigarette, and then frantically chasing after it when it leaves the station with his baby on board in East Cleveland. The incident happened on January 12, but the video was only released on Wednesday.

The train driver was informed about the baby on board before reaching the next station, which was just a minute away, according to the report. RTA officials responded and quickly returned to the stop where the father was reunited with his child.
