Someone intentionally stabbed a baby or was it accidental?
How does one "accidentally" stab a baby?
Here's the story.
Police say the boy was stabbed in the left forearm.
The child was taken to the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia where he is listed in stable condition, according to police.
Officers say no arrests have been made and no weapons were recovered at the scene.
In a statement to Action News, the synagogue's executive director said the stabbing was not an antisemitic attack and that none of the parties involved were connected to the synagogue.
The executive director went on to say that an individual, who is known to the police, was experiencing a mental health crisis.
The statement from the synagogue read in part, "I am proud of the BZBI staff and security team who followed appropriate protocols and procedures needed to not only ensure the safety and well-being of our congregants and children attending Religious School but also to provide medical aid to the family while they waited for an ambulance to arrive. While this is an ongoing investigation, all reports seem to indicate that this is not an anti-semitic attack, but unfortunately part of the tragic increase in crime that we have been seeing in the city."

Takeira Hester, 28, was out on bail when she missed her April 11 hearing in the assault case for allegedly stabbing a 31-year-old man who tried to break up a fight between her and another woman on a lower Manhattan train in 2022, authorities said.
She now also faces attempted murder charges for the stabbing spree in Philly — which began at around around 8:30 a.m. April 13 when Hester allegedly randomly knifed a 24-year-old woman in the chest and hand in the Center City neighborhood, local cops said.
Just hours later at around noon, Hester allegedly stormed up to a 1-year-old boy riding in a stroller alongside his twin – and brazenly stabbed him in front of both parents on South 18th Street, authorities said.
Hester had a warrant out for her arrest out of New York City at the time after skipping out on her hearing in Manhattan Criminal Court on the assault case, prosecutors said.
She’s accused of attacking a good Samaritan who tried to intervene as Hester fought with another woman on board a southbound No. 4 train at the Brooklyn Bridge-City Hall station around 6 a.m. on Oct. 26, 2022, according to the NYPD.
She allegedly pulled a knife and stabbed the man in the back of the neck, right wrist and shoulder, cops said.
Hester fled out of the station, but was later identified at Bellevue Hospital, where she was arrested, authorities said.
She was charged with second-degree assault and first-degree attempted assault charges in connection to that incident, according to a criminal complaint.
A Manhattan judge at her arraignment ordered her held on $10,000 cash, $15,000 insurance company bond, or $25,000 partially secured surety bond at her arraignment, according to the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office.
