A newborn and two infants have been stabbed by an in-home daycare worker in New York.
The victims, including a three-day-old baby girl and two boys aged one month and one-and-a-half, are in a critical but stable condition, CNN reports. The attack happened in Flushing, Queens.
"There was one child with more serious injuries than the other two," New York police Assistant Chief Juanita Holmes told CNN. "At one point, we thought she might have been likely [to die], but, thank God, she was upgraded."
The father of one of the injured children and a woman who works at the centre were also attacked.
The suspect, a 52-year-old employee at the centre, was taken to hospital after trying to stab herself when police arrived.
There are doubts the daycare was operating legally.
