The mother of the children was said to have left the kids in the car briefly while she went to open the gate to drive into the house after they returned from an outing around 8pm on Friday.
“Another car with three occupants suddenly drove up to her. Some of the occupants collected her car keys and drove her car away with the kids inside,” the police spokesperson said.
“The anti-kidnapping section of the police is already on the trail of the assailants to rescue the two kids and recover the car.”
