A mother has died after being stabbed by a knife-wielding man who went on a killing rampage in Sydney, with surgeons racing to save her nine-month-old baby’s life.

    The mother died in hospital, bringing the total number of victims to six people, while her baby was stabbed in the stomach, Australian media reported.

    An eye-witness described how he attempted to use shirts from the shopping centre to compress the baby’s wounds and stop it from bleeding. “There was a lot of blood on the floor. I hope the baby is all right,” he told 9News Sydney.

    1. Queensland man Joel Cauchi, 40, has been named as the man who went on a stabbing spree at Bondi Junction Westfield, killing six people and injuring at least a dozen more before police shot him dead.

    2. If we could own guns for self defense this wouldn’t happen. I wrote this comment about self defense on the 7newsaustralia channel covering the attack that happened and now the comments are turned off

    3. “Police have confirmed 40-year-old Joel Cauchi as the man behind a deadly stabbing spree at a Sydney shopping centre that claimed six lives.
      Among those who died was a mother whose nine-month-old daughter was also stabbed and remains in hospital after undergoing surgery.
      The attacker, who had moved to Sydney from Brisbane last month, was shot dead at the scene.
      He was previously known to police.
      Forensic officers are continuing to gather evidence and the Australian Federal Police have also been deployed to the crime scene.
      New South Wales Police say at this stage there is nothing to indicate the attack was driven by ideology.”

      Pro-tip: All religions are fake and based on misunderstood UFO/alien experiences and that’s provable. Stop jumping to conclusions about motives.

    4. a 9 month year old baby got stabbed, and the mother is dead

      If the perpetrator Joel Cauchi wont answer for this, someone else will. A baby doesn't get stabbed and nothing happens from it, not in my fcking country.

    5. He caused terror in that mall killed 6 people! Will he be called a terrorist or a mentally ill person? What if the person was a brown?

    6. They closed most of the asylums in here and built ghastly but expensive little houses on the lands, leaving the community to contend with these dangerous nutters

    7. The only person in all of this who should be hailed as a hero was the mother trying to save her baby. Everyone else who was there are cowards. Apart from that officer.

    8. It’s common for society to hate on police.
      And honestly some of it is justified.

      But situations like this are exactly why we need police officers.
      Much respect to this brave woman.

      My heart goes out to the families and loved ones of 6 victims.
      May they rest in peace.💔
