A mother is said to have critically injured her little daughter with a knife in Burghausen in the Altötting district. According to previous investigations, the 35-year-old woman is said to have grabbed the knife early on Wednesday morning and inflicted stabs and cuts on the four-year-old’s neck and face, the police said. The woman was arrested.
Relatives who were in the apartment alerted the emergency services, a police spokesman said. The little girl’s life was initially in danger. He was taken to a hospital and operated on immediately. At the request of the public prosecutor, the woman is to be brought before the investigating judge at the Traunstein district court on Wednesday. He has to decide whether the suspect should be temporarily accommodated or taken into custody.
The police initially did not comment on the exact circumstances of the crime. “The background and motive for the crime are now, among other things, the subject of the criminal police investigation, which is why no statements can be made in this regard,” the officials explained.
