DETROIT. Tuesday morning a 5-year-old girl was going to her first day of kindergarten when her father forced the girl and her mother into car at knife-point.
"My child's dad kidnapped us out of our driveway this morning," the mother said. "I was on my way to taking my child to her first day of kindergarten and basically got ambushed getting in the car. I was just like, 'Please let us out, please stop the car.' He was doing every bit of 80, 90 miles per hour up and down I-94."
The suspect took the mother and daughter around Detroit's west side, never telling them why he forced them into the vehicle and where he was taking them.
He drove to his mother's house and left his daughter there.
"I was locked in the back at the time and once he dropped the baby off we made a right turn and police was right there," the mother said.
It's not clear who called the police but they were waiting for him.
"Thank you Detroit police officers. Thank you so much," the mother said. "We're home. We're safe and I'm glad it's over withâ€
This was to be her first day at school, so sad, a neighbor said.
The 5-year-old girl never made it to her first day of kindergarten. She will try it again tomorrow.
