Moms will do anything to make sure their child is safe, but one Australian mom went above and beyond when she risked her life to save another woman’s baby.
Mother-of-four Eloca Arafe had been dropping her kids off at school one day when she saw a man get in a car that she realized belonged to her friend and fellow mom, and started to drive off. She immediately called for her friend who came sprinting from the school, but knew she had to do something when she realized her friend’s six-month-old baby was still inside the car.
“I didn’t know what to do for her. I just felt helpless,” Eloca said. Without hesitating, she lunged towards the moving car after realizing what was happening, and jumped onto the hood and began slamming on the windshield with her hands to stop the thief.
“He’s gone to take off … I don’t know how. I just jumped up on the bonnet and (was) just telling him ‘the baby, the baby’. That’s all we cared about,” she said. “That’s when I came off the car and he just went.”
Despite Eloca’s best attempt to stop the man, she was soon thrown from the car, but luckily, police later found the car after the thief abandoned it with baby Amira safely inside. Now, the brave mother is being called a hero, but she insists it was just her motherly instincts and would do it again in a heartbeat if another child was in danger.
