New York, April 30
A 24-year-old Indian man has been charged with kidnapping, assault and theft after he drove off in an elderly woman’s car from outside a medical centre in the US with her grandchildren inside the vehicle.
Dalvir Singh, a heroin addict, was taken into custody and charged with two counts of kidnapping, felonious assault for dragging Nita Coburn, 69 and grand theft, the Middletown Division of Police said in a statement.
Coburn was injured when as she tried to stop Singh as the kids jumped out of the car. The police is also hailing Coburn’s 8-year-old grandson Chance as a hero for saving his 10-year-old sister’s life by pulling her out of the car as Singh took off in it.
The police said about 10 seconds after Coburn got out of the car, Singh jumped into the driver’s seat and took off with the children still in the back. The little boy opened the door to escape and grabbed hold of his siter and pulled her away from Singh and they both tumbled out of the vehicle as it was moving. — PTI
