(Scroll down for video) A white man was accused of kidnapping his three young black daughters.
The father, who lives in Prince William County, Virginia, was detained and questioned by police after they suspected he might have kidnapped his own children.
The man named Joseph, married his African-American wife, 10-years-ago. Together, they have three adorable dark-skinned girls. One day, when the father took his daughters to Walmart, the security guard saw Joseph and became suspicious that the girls might have been kidnapped by Joseph.
After Joseph cashed a check at Walmart, he took his children back to his car, strapped them into the car seats and drove home.
When he reached his home, he was greeted by a police officer. The officer detained and questioned him. The police officer informed Joseph that the security guard at Walmart had reported him to police.

His wife Keana, said that police asked them both for their IDs and then asked their 4-year-old daughter to point out who her father and mother were.
“I understand why the couple was offended, but on the other hand, with so many kidnappings, people try to be vigilant, and when they see something that looks odd they report it. Rather safe than sorry,” Hazel Lewis, 33, of Norfolk, Virginia, told YourJewishNews.com when asked her opinion of the incident.
When Keana, the African-American mother, called Walmart and demanded an explanation of the events, they informed her that a customer had seen her husband in the parking lot and had come into the store, was worried, so he reported the incident to the security guard who then notified the police.
