Footage shows moment man tries to kidnap child
Updated | By Jane Linley-Thomas
There is nothing more frightening for a parent than when your child is at risk. The scary thing is that our children are at risk all the time, every day. CCTV footage has revealed how a man attempted to snatch a child from a trolley while the mother was shopping.
This is not the first time this type of footage has surfaced.
In the clip you see a mom turning her back for a second in a grocery shop, and when she turns back some strange man has picked her child up out of its chair.
What shocks me more than the idea of turning around and your child is not there, is how calm the mother seems to be.
In both clips I have seen in a similar vein the mother is as cool as a cucumber. Had that been me, I would have opened a can of whoop ass on him and clutched my baby back! Maybe it's the sheer bewilderment which comes across as calm?
