“When I run, the mother fired a stab and I get it into my head and I drop. And after I drop, they start beat me and start to stab me. I get more stab in mi head because I try to block not to get the stab nowhere else, so it’s only mi head they get and in my back.”

Phill says after the women attacked her they dragged her a good distance along the sidewalk until someone alerted the police, who quickly came to her rescue. Phill, who lost a lot blood, was rushed to the Karl Heusner Memorial Hospital.
