A man has finally reunited with his son after spending 27 years behind bars for a crime he did not commit.
An emotional video captured the heartwarming moment the man, who had been wrongfully convicted nearly three decades ago, embraced his son after his release.
At the time of his sentencing, he had insisted on his innocence but was given a life sentence, leaving his newborn son behind. Now, years later, their long-awaited reunion took place in a car park, where the father reassured his son that he had never abandoned him.
The touching moment sparked emotional reactions online, with many viewers moved by their bond.
