Police claim that at 7:50 PM on June 15, two teens on an e-bike in Sippy Downs used a fire extinguisher to spray inside the open rear window of a Silver Suzuki Vitara on High Street.

The car, which was stopped at a red light, had 29-year-old father Leon and his five-month-old baby, Pixie, inside.

Queensland mum and Leon’s partner, Tiffani Teasdale, told 9News that smoke filled the car, leaving Leon unable to see or breathe.

“He yelled out to them ‘I’ve got a baby in the car, I’ve got a baby in the car’,” Teasdale said.

After the incident, Pixie was rushed to hospital, where nurses frantically worked to flush the chemicals from her eyes.

Teasdale said she heard her daughter scream and saw her covered in red rashes with bloodshot eyes.

The incident sparked a manhunt to find the pair responsible.
