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.

A woman who warned others of a landslide just moments before she was buried in rubble is being hailed a hero as desperate search efforts continue. Multiple children are among those unaccounted for after a big landslide destroyed the popular Mount Maunganui Beachside Holiday Park on New Zealand's North Island. The woman is being praised by locals after she frantically pulled campers from their beds at 5am and warned them of danger so they could start packing up to leave. In a tragic twist, the same woman later became trapped in a toilet block along with several others when the hillside completely collapsed a few hours later, at about 9.30am on Thursday. The amenities block was buried in the landslip, with rescuers hearing terrified screams for help, but being unable to hear further cries after about 15 minutes. 'I just want you to know that one of the women that's in that shower block, she was a hero,' a witness, who didn't want to be named, told the New Zealand Herald. 'She went around at 5 o'clock this morning and she got us all out of bed and she woke us all up so that we could move out... and she's not out.'
