The disturbing incident was captured by security cameras, showing a maroon sedan pulling up alongside a mother and her three kids strolling on a sidewalk.

A man police said was McGonagle then jumps out of the car, grabs the little boy and shoves him in the back seat of the car near Myrtle and Hillside avenues around 8:45 p.m., according to the footage.

The frantic mother was able to pull her son out of an open window of the car before the vehicle sped off.

Sources said the mother and her kids were heading to her husband’s job to bring him food when the near-abduction occurred.
