A young boy was allegedly caught trying to slit a 3-year-old girl’s throat.
On Friday, February 4, the incident occurred in the city of Touba, Senegal.
At around 5 p.m., the adolescent was spotted hurrying with the girl towards an abandoned building.
The manager of an auto shop became suspicious when he saw the adolescent with the girl and began following him as he brought the girl into a vacant building a few meters away from the business.
A short time later, the garage manager notified two of his trainees to the teenager’s unusual movements.
The apprentices followed the adolescent to his hiding place, where they were astonished to see him holding a knife over the young girl.
The apprentices took the suspect to the police station where he was questioned.
According to the revelations of the Touba Brigade, the suspect is a 15-year-old apprentice driver.
To safeguard her identity, the little girl was recognized only by her initials, KS, and she has now been reunited with her parents, KY and DM, whose names have also been truncated to hide their identities.
