Authorities are hoping videos will help catch a man who carjacked a woman in Oakland Park and drove off with her young child in the back seat then left her on the side of the road.
The carjacking happened around 8:30 a.m. Wednesday at 850 W. Commercial Boulevard.
Broward Sheriff's Office officials said the mother and 3-year-old daughter were involved in a crash with another vehicle and when the mother got out to exchange information with the other driver, a man got into her vehicle and drove away with the 3-year-old still inside.
The mother grabbed onto the vehicle's door and yelled at the man that the child was still inside but he drove away, dragging the mother until she fell to the ground.
NBC6 spoke with the mother by phone on Friday.
"Out of nowhere this guy came inside the car and I grabbed on to the car and I was telling him 'my baby my baby!'" said the mother, who didn't want to be identified.
