Police allege that at 7.50pm on June 15, two teenagers riding an e-bike on High Street, in Sippy Downs, sprayed a fire extinguisher into the open back window of a Silver Suzuki Vitara.

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.
