Mother almost in tears when police reunited her with her baby after a thief stole her car with the baby in it.
The police recovered a baby who was aboard a red Toyota Corolla that had been kidnapped from its owner by gunmen in Santasi, Kumasi, Ashanti Region.
The victim’s post about the event, which occurred on Sunday, January 16, went viral on social media.
When the police in Kumasi heard the report, they immediately alerted all mobile patrol units in the city to be on the lookout.
In an interview with the media, Assistant Superintendent Godwin Ahianyo of the Ashanti Regional Police claimed the suspects were given a vigorous chase by the police and, feeling dangered, abandoned the car and escaped into the woods.
He did mention, however, that the police have launched a hunt for the two gunmen who seized the vehicle from its owner while a baby was inside.
Meanwhile, the automobile has been transported to the Ashanti Regional Authorities Headquarters, and the baby has been reunited with his mother, according to police.
