Something else to consider. The fire department was called to the scene. When they get on site, if there is a possibility for them to enter and conduct a rescue they will do so. Had the father been in the building then they would have had to effect 2 rescues, not just one. These are the guys who run in to the face of danger. Is it fair to have them place their life at risk more then they have too?

Also, not that the cop knew or did not know, but the father would have left a widow and his other child without a father.

As others have said, it sucks all the way around, but it seems the fathers actions would have affected more than just him.
