Pals help save Athlone schoolgirl from attempted abduction horror

- BY KIM SWARTZ

AN ATHLONE primary school learner survived an attempted abduction last week after the perpetrators said she had to get into the car, claiming her mom sent them.

Welcome Primary School issued a statement on 19 August informing parents of the incident that happened the previous day saying it is a great concern, but grateful the learner is safe.

The school said: “A Grade 5 learner from our school reported that she and her friends were followed by four men in what she believed to be an orange Renault. The men continued to follow them until they reached St Theresa’s Primary School.

“When the learner separated from the friends, the men approached her and persistently tried to convince her to get into their car, claiming that her mother had sent them.”
