A 51 year woman has been arrested & is facing up to 10 years in prison.
The boy, 3, was attacked as he held hands with his mother as his sibling and father walked behind them in a street in Tbilisi, Georgia. Footage shows the woman approaching the youngster, pulling a knife out of a black handbag and slashing him across the face. She begins to march off before turning and attempting to stab the second child. The father pulls the younger boy away before she can make contact, before running after his attacker.
But the man backs off as the woman lashes out at him still holding on to the knife. The boy was rushed to hospital by ambulance and treated for ‘moderately severe’ cuts to his nose and cheek, Jam News reported. Police discovered CCTV at the scene, outside a pharmacy on Pekini Street in the Georgian capital, and were able to track down the suspect. The boy’s parents said they had never seen the attacker before
Police have arrested a woman, 51, in relation to the stabbing. If convicted she faces seven to 10 years in prison. Doctors at the hospital where the boy was treated said he will be kept in for a few days to monitor his progress.
