Help Sol buy another car .

Don protégé
Hi,
I'm Joanne and I'm starting a go fund me to help raise money for Sol, one of my son's 17 yr old friends after hearing about his and his friends ordeal of being carjacked at knife point here in our very own community of Ocean Shores. The following events took place on Dec 23rd.
Sol and some friends, were under the Orana Road Tunnel, below the highway overpass. What happened next sounds like something that happened out of a movie, or what would happen on the street of Joahannesburg. Two boys, jumped out with a knife and carjacked Sol and his friends.
One of the boys jumped in the driver's seat, and pushed Sol over onto the passenger seat, onto his friends lap. His accomplice jumped into the back seat, with Sol's other friends. The carjacker did not let Sol and his friends leave. The driver then drove off at high speed, most likely under the influence, along Coolamon Scenic Drive ( a notoriously dangerous road), and then off onto a side street, before stopping at a property. The driver left the vehicle, and ran into the property, returning a short time later, bleeding, after being punched in the head. The driver then took off again at high speed, thinking that they were being chased. He got the car stuck in long grass. After trying to turn around, everyone got out. The two boys were deciding what to do, when they noticed car headlights coming down the road. Sol and his friends took this opportunity to run off into the bush. After 40 minutes, they managed to contact police and inform them of the situation. The police arrived and set up flood lights to guide the group back to the road. When they found the car, it had been damaged extensively by the perpetrators. The passenger door had almost been ripped off and most of the windows were broken, plus car panels smashed in. The car is a write-off. Sol had recently got his P's and after saving up for it, had just bought the car a few weeks before this traumatic and unfortunate incident. He was not yet insured.
Police are now pursuing an investigation and there is a warrant out for the two boys arrests. They are facing serious charges and are believed to have fled to Queensland.
We are humbly asking the community to rally around Sol, and his friends, who were in the wrong place at the wrong time. We would like to raise funds for a new car for Sol. Apart from the traumatic experience of the event, he has been left without a car to get himself to work, school and social events. By raising enough to buy a new car, we hope that faith in the inherent goodness of this community can be restored for these kids. Thankyou for taking the time to read this.
