CCTV cameras have captured the moment three men ambush a ute driver outside a suburban home.

Three kidnappers can be seen running toward a ute driver yelling, “don’t move” in footage of a shocking abduction in southwest Sydney on Tuesday.

CCTV cameras captured the armed kidnapping unfolding outside a home on Coraki Rd in Bass Hill about 10.30pm.

The unknown offenders, travelling in a sedan, are first seen coming to a halt on the road, in view of a CCTV camera.

Moments later, a ute crosses their path and pulls to a stop.

The offenders can then be seen running toward it, before a gunshot rings out and the ute driver is dragged back to the sedan, which then drives away.
