Woodridge, Logan: Dad recalls terrifying moment he learned his 10-year-old had been allegedly kidnapped from a skate park - and why the boy was targeted

The shaken father of a young boy has spoken of the moment he was told that his son had allegedly been kidnapped by a group of armed strangers. 

The boy, 10, was allegedly taken by two men armed with machetes and a woman in a Jeep at Adventure Park, in Woodridge, south of Brisbane, on Friday afternoon.

'(It's) terrifying to get home from work and get a phone call your kid's been kidnapped,' the boy's father told 7News. 

The group allegedly drove the boy around for half-an-hour before his parents tracked them down and managed to get him free following a heated argument.

The trio are alleged to have taken the boy after he threw a rock at their car.

The boy's parents claim their son was mistaken for another kid who was actually responsible for the act. 

'Another young fella threw the rock and took off and when the group come back they took my son because they look similar,' the father said.

The boy's mother said her son wasn't even at the skate park when the incident unfolded.

She revealed how the ordeal had left the family shaking.

'It's traumatising. My son now has to live with the rest of his life that he's been put in a car, he's been kidnapped,' she told 9News.

'He wasn't there, he was at a friend's house around the corner. They'd gone to the skate park after it happened.'

The boy's shocked parents said they jumped into their cars and followed the alleged kidnapper's car.

The occupants of the Jeep jumped out when they were confronted by the parents.

The mother was heard yelling: 'Someone help, help. They stole my kid'.

The boy's father was allegedly knocked unconscious while his mother's leg was run over during the five-minute altercation.

The mother said she was overcome with relief once their child had been retrieved.

'It wasn't really until we got in the car and got home that it was really registering we had him back,' she said.

'Yeah I just hugged him and it just made me appreciate that he was okay.'

The alleged kidnappers were arrested nearby a short time later.

Tauvela Soe, 27, of Woodridge, was charged with kidnapping and assault occasioning bodily harm.

He will reappear in court on June 10.

Another Woodridge man, 22, and a Kingston woman, 29, were charged with kidnapping and assault occasioning bodily harm.

The pair will appear in Beenleigh Magistrates Court on May 16.
