Sick trio roar at schoolboy to 'get in the car' in botched lunchtime abduction attempt

A sick trio shouted at a schoolboy who was on his lunch break to "get in the car" in a sickening abduction attempt, according to reports.

The men were said to approach the child and roar instructions at him as he headed home from school with his brother to get food.

Witnesses saw two men driving past the boy in a grey Seat car and scream at the boy in Dublin, Ireland, according to a report by Dublin Live.

A relative said on social media: "People be aware, the child was approached today by two men and what looked to be a smaller person.

"They hopped out of a grey Seat car as he was on his way home from lunch.

"They screamed at him to get in the car but only for his brother and friends were close by, it could have ended different."

It was said the boy's school has been informed about the incident and staff have contacted Gardai for further information.

A source said: "The child is understood to have told the school about the matter and warning texts have been sent out."
