Toddler almost snatched from trolley in mall

Doing the rounds on social media is a video that probably show every single parents worst nightmare.

A lady in Mall of the South in Alberton can be seen paying for her shopping at a counter with her child in a trolley next to her.

A person can be seen walking up to the child and it looks like they were trying to remove the child from the trolley. How scary!!!!

What we don't understand is how calmly the mother reacts, maybe she was in shock or unsure about what was happening.

Unfortunately there is no sound to the video so we don't know exactly what happened.

Do you think this was an attempted kidnapping?
