A young father's irresponsible drinking claimed the life of his four-year-old daughter after he dropped her from a bridge. Singing and stumbling in a drunken stupor, the man also had his little daughter on his shoulders when he lost his balance while crossing a bridge. The little girl hit the rocks and was crushed to death. Her father fell on her and survived with minor injuries.

One shudders to think of the state the parents are in right now. The tragic account is one more indication of the foolhardy bravado induced by excessive alcohol consumption.
