These Detroit cops were, thankfully, at the right time and place. They rescued four kidnapped siblings after they pulled over a traffic violator who ran the red light.
Officers Parrish and Flannel saw a van run over the red light. They signaled the woman driver to pull over and noticed something different about her passengers.
This led them to probe and ask the violator, "Are these your children? To which she said yes, and the children at the same time were shaking their head no," Detroit Police Chief James White narrated.
She said that they were on the way to their school. The officers inquired further and asked her what school are they attending. They said, "she could not give a good answer."
The cops then asked the kids to come out of the van. They talked to them individually and found out that their suspicions were right all along. The woman was arrested and the kids were returned to their parents.
"I just thank everyone involved that my children are back home safe," said Shayla Burleigh, the mom of the kidnapped siblings.
The woman was charged with kidnapping and unlawful imprisonment and is in jail held on a $5M bond.
Detroit Police Chief James White commended and recognized Officers Parrish and Flannel's great work in a press conference a few weeks back.
