A little girl was rushed to a hospital after the tragic incident.

On March 19, 2018, Kim Rowlands, 25, posted on Facebook that her car disappeared with her daughter, Kiara Moore, inside, as reported by Mirror.

'Can everyone look out for the car, It's been stolen with my 3-year-old daughter in it. Please share!' she wrote.

Nicola Rowlands, her sister, also took to her personal Facebook account and made her own appeal. She wrote that her sister's car was stolen from Carmarthenshire with her niece inside.

Police posted on their social media account that they received a call about the missing car at around 3.30pm. The car was last seen outside the Scout Hall in Cardigan. During a search, the car had been found in the River Teifi with little Kiara inside.
