A mother has revealed her horror when a stranger grabbed her six-year-old son in broad daylight while she chatted with a friend nearby.
Mum, Jane Morrison-Allen, from�Middlesbrough in the UK, was�trying to come to terms with the tragic�death of her 19-month-old son, Cian, who lost his battle against cancer, when the incident happened last�week.
She and her husband, Mark,�faced a new�trauma after a stranger tried�to snatch their�son, Charlie, who has autism.
Charlie�was approached by a�man at about 4.30pm�on Thursday as he played with his siblings and friends near their�home in the Pallister Park area of Middlesbrough, when suddenly, a man grabbed him around the collar area and dragged him.
Thankfully, Charlie’s�11-year-old sister, Chloe heard screams and�rushed to help.
Mrs Morrison-Allen was standing just around the corner, talking to a friend about the�fundraising in memory of Cian. She said that Charlie was just out of her sight for ‘only five minutes’.
“Charlie had put his scooter down and was just playing.�The man said “Come here son I want to show you something.�Chloe saw he had hold of him and was dragging him,” she said.
One of the children who witnessed the incident said the man had been�watching Charlie’s four-year-old brother at first, which left�Mrs Morrison-Allen terrified and anxious about her children.�”I’ve already got separation issues after losing Cian,” she said.
The man fled and local police�have appealed for witnesses and information.
The man was described by the youngsters as black or mixed race, in his 40s, wearing a white T-shirt, with a red emblem on the front and�writing on the back.�He was wearing black tracksuit bottoms or jeans and white, red and grey�Nike Huarache-style trainers.
