A 73-year-old Detroit man is behind bars for allegedly attacking a 7-year-old girl with a knife in a city park full of children, slashing her throat in an incident that ended with the child racing home to her mother for help, and the suspect in handcuffs.

“He just like came out of nowhere and just like (pulled) the knife on me,” the girl told Fox 2 News as she sat on a porch step this week with gauze around her neck, explaining how a day at the park with her grandmother turned into a day of horror.

    There’s lots of parts and depths of your neck you can cut and not die. It’s just that there are also lots of parts that you can’t.

    Always make me think of that hockey goalie that got his jugular cut. (He didn’t die either.)
