Gordon's Bay security shared the details of a hijacking rescue that could pass as a movie script. A far cry from the big screen, a two-year-old boy was rescued from a stolen vehicle heading towards Hermanus after being hijacked outside a school in Grabouw.

Like a Swiss clock, security officers attached to Gordon’s Bay Security along with other Law Enforcement agencies worked together to rescue a two-year-old boy who was in a Toyota Avanza that was allegedly hijacked outside a school in Grabouw on Friday, 6 May., every available and even unavailable police, security, traffic, and Metro Police vehicle, neighbourhood watch and farm watch were activated to ensure the boy’s safe return.

“The whole planning and implementation took only minutes with the safety of the child on everyone’s mind throughout the planning phase,” de Waal reported. The plan was to deploy an unmarked GBSEC tracking vehicle as an advanced interceptor to an undisclosed location and to wait for the Avanza, fall behind it at a distance and relay the hijacker’s movements.

“Hearts pounding in their chests, each member knew which door is his, who does what and who grabs the child no matter what happens around him. Doors were forced open, the suspect slammed to the ground, and the child was grabbed and rushed to a waiting GBSEC medical response vehicle which left the scene within seconds while GBSEC and SAPS members secured the suspect and scene.

This country and the violence is just something else! So glad the boy is ok, but imagine the trauma to be separated from his family in a car chase scene with a criminal. Between Gordons Bay, and Kleinmond it's at least a 30min drive 🥹 Saddest is that this is an everyday event.

This is great, small towns working together, implementing what they have trained for.
