A four-month-old baby boy is receiving medical treatment after being kidnapped during an alleged hijacking in Khayelitsha, Cape Town at the weekend.
The baby had been travelling in his uncle’s bakkie at the time of the incident on Saturday afternoon.
The infant had been found, abandoned, in Makhaza on Sunday morning.
The police’s FC Van Wyk says they’re investigating cases of carjacking and kidnapping.
Anyone with information regarding the incident is requested to call Crime Stop on 10111.
“ According to reports, the complainant was at his uncle place to deliver chicken with his white Isuzu LDV. While they were busy with the chickens in the back of the LDV, five unknown males came to them and pointed the complainant with a firearm. The suspects then took the cellular telephones of the complainant and his uncle and then got inside the LDV and drove away. Inside the LDV was the four month old baby of the complainant. The complainant then tried to get a brick to break the window of the LDV in order for the suspects to stop but they kept on going. The complainant then immediately reported the incident at the police”, said van Wyk.
