Canadian Mounties arriving at the scene of a car crash in Alberta on a frigid Monday morning discovered five naked people inside, and ended up arresting them on suspicion of kidnapping a mother, her father and her newborn baby.
Royal Canadian Mounted Police Cpl. Laurel Scott said the mother, six-week-old infant and the woman's father had been abducted from a home in Nisku, Laduc County, at around 9.30am and forced into a BMW against their will, the Daily Mail reports.
While the car was being driven, the adult man, who was stuffed in the trunk, somehow managed to escape. Shortly after that the woman escaped with the baby.
Authorities said a passing motorist noticed the victims, offered assistance and placed all three in his truck before the suspects' white BMW rammed the rear of the Good Samaritan's vehicle and ended up wrecked in a ditch.
Derek Scott, of LPH Industrial, tells CTV News it was his employee who came to the family's rescue after seeing them running barefoot in the snow.
