Seven-year-old girl fights off woman during attempted abduction at Mackay service station POLICE are looking at the veracity of a complaint by a seven-year-old who said she fought off a woman who tried to abduct her from a Mackay service station. The child, who said a woman approached her offering lollies and dragged her out of the bathroom, came forward to the police this morning. Police said they no longer believe the couple tried to abduct the child but the investigation is still open. Earlier, it was reported that the girl was in the toilets of a BP service station on the Bruce Highway at Coningsby about 5.15pm Sunday when a woman aged in her 20s spoke to her. The woman offered the girl lollies to persuade her to come with her before grabbing her arm and dragging her out of the toilets and through the doors of the petrol station. The girl fought with the woman and managed to pull away and ran to where her father had been waiting for her. The woman, who changed her clothes while in the toilets, walked to a waiting car driven by a man after the girl's father tried to find her. Police say they have spoken to a man and a woman identified from CCTV and they had no involvement. Police are appealing for anyone who recognised the couple or the car to call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or their local police.
