Mother's horror confrontation with 10-year-old son's alleged kidnappers
The mother of a young boy allegedly abducted from a skate park south of Brisbane has relived the terrifying moment.
The 10-year-old was allegedly snatched by a stranger and thrown inside a Jeep before he was terrorised for about 30 minutes on Friday afternoon in the Logan suburb of Kingston.
His mother, who did not wish to be identified in an exclusive interview with 9News, said her son was left traumatised.

The mother of a 10-year-old boy kidnapped from skate park in Kingston has shared the terrifying ordeal. Nine
"My son now has to live with the rest of his life that he's been put in car, he's been [allegedly] kidnapped," she said.
The man allegedly responsible had been furious his passing car had been hit by a rock thrown by children.
But his mother said her son had been at a friend's house nearby when that happened and didn't go to the skate park until much later.
He was at the wrong place at the wrong time, she said.
CCTV footage showed the Jeep returning to the skate park.
Two men and one woman were seen confronting three children before allegedly grabbing the 10-year-old and putting him in the back seat.
They then allegedly drove him around local streets for 30 minutes. 9News understands the group did not take the boy to a police station.

"I don't wish that upon my worst enemy. Nobody should have to have that feeling of being told that their son's been taken. Nobody deserves that," his mother said.
The boy's friends called his parents, who began driving around the streets and found the Jeep less than two kilometres from the skate park.
His parents allegedly began brawling with the alleged kidnappers.
"My automatic reaction, I jumped straight out the car and straight to the back of that car," the mother said.
"They were threatening to run us over. They'd already tried to run me over."
The boy's father was allegedly knocked unconscious and hospitalised.
"There were three or four – I don't know I can't remember how many – on him kicking him, hitting him," his mother said.

The group then allegedly took off in the Jeep but were arrested about 10 minutes later on Ewing Street.
"It wasn't really until we had (our son) in the car and we got him home that it was registering that we had him back. I just hugged him and loved him and made me appreciate that he was okay," the mother said.
The man accused of kidnapping the boy, 27-year-old Teuvela Soe, has been refused bail.
A 22-year-old man and 29-year-old woman were also charged with assault and kidnapping but have been granted bail.
