Summary Brazilian police say they've detained a man suspected of carjacking a vehicle
RIO DE JANEIRO: (AP) - Brazilian police say they ve detained a man suspected of carjacking a vehicle with two small children inside.
The G1 internet portal says the carjacking took place in the central city of Aparecida de Goiania on Thursday, after a woman left her car unlocked and idling as she ducked into a store. Surveillance video on the site shows a passer-by jump into the car and drive away, as the woman gave chase. The report said the children in the back seat, ages 3 and 7, were left by the side of the road some 10 kilometers (6 miles) away.
The Goias state military police said in a statement Friday the suspect was detained as he and another man approached the stolen car. The men fled on foot, but police caught one.
