Angelika Riggins, 16, of Fairfield, California, says she is heartbroken after father Joshua Cooper, 18, also of Fairfield, was charged with biting his own baby's nose off out of frustration at the infant's crying. 'I didn't see no anger that morning,' Riggins told KGO. 'I didn't see no stress that morning. He was up playing with [Ta'jon].'
