A routine audience of Pope Francis was marked by a sympathetic moment when a child stepped onto the altar. The boy tried several times to take the cap off the pontiff and although he did not succeed, his perseverance was rewarded. The boy, who the pope later said has a medical "limitation," wore a mask and looked about 10 years old.
