Casualty fans were left horrified after Faith’s son Luka was kidnapped in a disturbing grooming plot last night (February 19).
The youngster was waiting to be collected after his football match in last night’s episode.
But when no one turned up, Luka was left stuck – and in a horrifying twist he was targeted by a predator.
With the rain pouring down, Luke was approached by a strange man.
Calling himself Darren, the man gave Luka money for the bus, pretending to be a good samaritan.

However, he soon turned when he told Luka that he would be waiting at least an hour for a bus to arrive.
Things soon turned darker when Darren offered Luka a lift to the bus stop.
With Luka telling the man his mum had told him not to talk to strangers, the man began to manipulate him.

Casualty fans disturbed by kidnap plot
Praising him for listening to his mum, Luka then used reverse psychology to lure him into his car.
Once he had Luka in his car, Darren claimed to be a football scout in an effort to win Luka over.
He told him that he had potential and that he wanted to train him for a career in football.
Darren even bragged about his big garden, insisting he could train Luka there in an effort to get him into Holby United.
But while he was driving Darren began trying to touch Luka.
The schoolboy fought back – scratching Darren’s arm and grabbing the steering wheel, causing a crash.
The pair were taken to Holby where Luka’s mum Faith works – and the staff immediately realised something was amiss.
Police were summoned and Darren was arrested before he could do anything serious to Luka.
But fans were disturbed by the storyline and horrified at the thought of what could have happened.
One said: “Step away from the coach, Luka! #Casualty.”

Another said: “That was disturbing #Casualty.”
