Attempted murder charge for stabbing nine-year-old
On Tuesday evening, a disturbing incident took place in Dorset where a nine-year-old girl was stabbed. The police were quickly alerted and arrived on the scene. It was later revealed that a 28-year-old man from Christchurch has been charged with attempted murder in connection with this incident. The attack took place at a residence on Gilder Close, leaving the community in shock.

Authorities also arrested a woman in her 50s on suspicion of assisting the man. However, she has since been released. The young victim is currently receiving treatment at the hospital for her injuries, which are fortunately not life-threatening. The officers involved in the case have assured that the girl and her family are receiving support from specially trained officers.

After thorough investigations, the detectives consulted with the Crown Prosecution Service who authorized the charges against the accused. The police maintained a strong presence in the area until late Tuesday night, providing reassurance and assistance to the community. They also urged anyone with concerns to come forward and speak to them.

DCI Aimee Schock expressed gratitude towards the community for their continuous support during this difficult time. She also stated that there will be an increased police presence in the following days and encouraged anyone with information or concerns to approach an officer. The man responsible for this heinous act is currently in custody and is set to appear at Poole Magistrate's Court on August 22. The police are determined to bring justice to the young victim and her family.
