Quick-Thinking 8-Year Old Keeps Little Sister Safe When Stranger Takes off with Them in the Car

Adam Jorgenson was horrified when a carjacker took off with his car with his 2 kids inside. But his 8-year-old daughter took charge!

In this report, we see a picture of a precious family of four. There is an 8-year-old with a 2-year-old younger sister seen in the photo. Everyone, thankfully, is safe and ok.

However, the heartwrenching voicemail comes to the mother that the girls need her help because they lost their dad, Adam Jorgenson. They were simply in a car wash when someone came in and hijacked their car. You hear the father’s call to the police, explaining that someone stole his car with his two kids in the car. This is a moment that no parent ever wants to encounter. 

Adam Jorgenson Gets Carjacked

Adam Jorgenson was just getting out of his car to dry it, and a man came up to ask for directions. Suddenly, he heard the car take off with his children in it. 8-year-old Charlie says that the thief noticed that she was in the car and told her to get out, but she innocently asked, “What about my sister?”

The hijacker had not noticed that there were two girls in the car. He ended up leaving the girls in the car and fled the scene a mile away. Charlie saw her dad’s phone and called her mother. The mom was so emotional in the interview and was very thankful they were okay. Everyone celebrates the girl’s bravery in the situation.

This is a moment that reminds us that evil exists and sin is, unfortunately, in the world. We always need to be prayerful and be on our guard.
