Pregnant woman carjacked with kids in car in Greenacre

Police are appealing for information after a pregnant woman was carjacked while her two children were inside at Greenacre.

About 4:20pm yesterday (Saturday 16 March 2019), a woman, who is nine months pregnant, was contacted by a male regarding an online advertisement for her car, a 2014 black Mercedes A45 AMG.

The woman met two men at a property on Mahogany Way, Greenacre and agreed to take one of the men on a test drive, taking her two children, a 10-year-old boy and an eight-year-old girl with her.

After a short time, the man asked to test-drive the vehicle and the woman agreed, stopping the car on Maiden Street, Greenacre.

As the woman walked around the car, the man got into the driver’s seat, locked the doors and began to drive away.

The woman grabbed hold of the door handle but fell over as the car drove off with her two children still inside.

The car stopped about 300m down the road where the man ordered the two children out of the car, before driving away.

The 34-year-old woman alerted police to the incident and officers from Bankstown Police Area Command commenced investigations.

She was taken to Bankstown Hospital as a precaution and for treatment for minor cuts and abrasions to her legs.
