Watch horror moment cocaine addict carjacked Leeds mum before driving off with her kids in back

Shocking video footage shows a man carjack a Leeds mothers car whilst her three children aged four, five and seven in the back in a terrifying robbery in Leeds.

The mother was robbed of her car in Armley Ridge Road in Leeds at 9am on Saturday, October 3.

The man, Ryan Fraser spotted the woman getting out of her car outside a hairdresser's and immediately approached her, pulling her away from the car, screaming in her face and pushing her across the pavement onto the ground.

Leeds Crown Court heard the children were screaming in the back of the car and the brave mum tried to stop it from being driven away by holding onto the driver's door for as long as she could.

Fraser's friend Andrew Hall got into the passenger's seat before Fraser drove the car away erratically and repeatedly told the children to shut up.

Hall shouted at Fraser to pull over and let the children out of the car and they were dropped off outside a house a few hundred meters away from the robbery scene.

A short time later, the car was taken to Sixth Avenue in Rothwell and burnt out in the area, with two women having been recruited to cover up the evidence.

Fraser was jailed for six years and five months.
