Taiwan rocked again by news of man slitting 12-year-old girl’s throat in front of her mother
Another Taiwanese mother witnessed a violent attack on her daughter earlier tonight. While arguing and attempting to get back together with his ex-girlfriend, a man surnamed Huang cut the woman’s 12-year-old daughter’s throat.
…

The incident occured at around 8 p.m. in Tainan. According to SETN, the girl had tried to mediate the argument between the two adults; however, as the drama unfolded she became a bargaining chip for the man and was taken hostage. When negotiations broke down, he cut a 6-cm-long, 0.5-cm-deep wound across the girl’s neck.

Neighbors brandishing bats came running to the rescue after hearing the mother’s screams; however, by that time, the man had already escaped. The mother grabbed a cloth to try and stop the bleeding and rushed her daughter to the nearest hospital.
Luckily, the wound wasn’t too deep, requiring 8 stiches, and the girl is now recovering. Police are tracking the whereabouts of the man.

This comes just a few days after a Taiwanese man beheaded a toddler in front of her mother.
According to Shanghaiist, this incident occurred yesterday (March 31) night around 8pm in Tainan, Taiwan.
In this case, the attacker, whose surname is Huang, was the ex-boyfriend of the mother and had been trying to reconcile with her.

He slit the girl’s neck, causing a wound that was 6cm-long, 0.5cm-deep.
While the mother’s screams managed to attract neighbours’ attention to help, the man managed to escape.
The girl was rushed to the hospital where she received eight stitches and is currently recovering. The man is still at large.
