Six boys, between the ages of 10 and 13 years old, from Mountain Road Primary School in Woodstock were abducted from their after-care class on Friday afternoon. A man led the boys out of the class, after telling the lady over seeing the children that he needed some help moving computers from his vehicle. He than led the boys down Main Road in Woodstock before managing to catch a lift with an elderly couple.
The man fled after the noticing that the couple were suspicious of him. The boys were returned to the school and charges of kidnapping were laid at the Woodstock Police station. Police have opened a case of kidnapping, but no arrests have yet been made.
“There has been no break through at the moment, but detectives are following all leads that they get in the case,” said Woodstock Police Sergeant Hilton Malila.
Malila says that primary school pupils will be spoken to about the dangers of talking to strangers.
