Brooklyn Mother Stabbed in Chest and Legs While Protecting Daughter From Woman in Blonde Wig Who Threatened Her 3-Year-Old
A mother in Brooklyn was attacked in broad daylight while pushing her 3-year-old daughter in a stroller this week, RadarOnline.com has learned.
The unsettling incident happened downtown on June 12 on the corner of Jay Street and Tillary Street around 3:30 PM.
Police said the suspect, a woman allegedly wearing a platinum blonde wig, started quarreling with her. It's unknown what led her to start arguing with the mother on Monday.
The woman is accused of threatening her young child, leading the mother, 34, to step in to protect her daughter before she was stabbed in her chest and both legs by the suspect.
Her child was unharmed, according to WABC. The mother was last reported to be in stable condition at Jamaica Hospital Medical Center.
Authorities said the suspect ran from the scene and remains on the loose. An image captured of the woman showed she was wearing a red jacket, black pants, white sneakers, and carrying a gray purse. She appeared to be on the phone and had a surgical face mask tucked underneath her chin.
Police said she is around 30 years old, 5'6 tall with a lean build and short, black hair.
