An urgent search is under way for a two-year-old boy who was snatched in a street in Australia.
New South Wales Police has issued an amber alert after Jax Wilson who was taken from a family member in Coffs Harbour just after 2pm on Friday local time.
He was driven away from the scene in a black Volkswagen Golf by a man and a woman.
Police said the man and woman were known to the toddler.
An amber alert is typically issued in time-critical situations after the abduction of a child under 18 years of age, according to police in Australia.
