On Monday, SABC News Western Cape reported on an inspiring story of two cops who drove a Delft mother 3 500km to fetch her son.

According to the post, the cops drove Jane Daniels from her home to eSwatini, formerly known as Swaziland, to fetch her son, Denzel.

Denzel had been missing for six years until eSwatini officials informed local police that he had been found two weeks ago.

Briefly.co.za learned warrant Officer Michael Daniels and Constable Emile Faroa drove Daniels on their own time.

"Me and Constable Faro were looking to one another, what now these people are phoning us every time what are we going to tell them now? How is he going to come home now?" Daniels said.

The two enlisted the help of Pastor George, who gave them his car to make the long trip.
