According to Omaha police, officers were called to the Walmart near 72nd and Pine streets around 9:20 a.m. on Tuesday.

When officers arrived, they saw a woman, identified as 31-year-old Noemi Guzman, outside the store holding a knife to a 3-year-old boy, who was in a shopping cart, officials said.

Officials said Guzman approached the caretaker with a knife, giving the caretaker commands to go in front of the shopping cart. Investigators believe Guzman stole the knife from the store.

Police said Guzman followed the caretaker out of the store and into the parking lot.

The caretaker was able to get away and ask a woman in the parking lot to call 911.

Police were called to the Walmart for a "nature unknown" emergency. The caller requested police assistance, but didn't give any additional information.

Another person called 911, saying there was a woman who was armed with "a large kitchen knife" with a child.

Two officers arrived at the store and approached the woman, who was making threats with the knife.

Video showed the suspect swiping the knife at the child, cutting him across the face.

Comments at the link are worthy of FR.

People are fed up with this kind of crap and the judges that let monsters like this go.

The creature doesn’t look exactly like a born female woman.

Uncontrolled Schizophrenia is a terrible thing for the person., his/her family and everyone who potentially crosses the path of the sick person. Some schizophrenics appear to be resistant to treatment.

YES

The parents are quick to blame “the mental health system”. Like the sheriff who said they intentionally ran over a shooter and killed him, I hope the sheriff here says they killed her intentionally to save the baby. People are fed up.

“She”?...it appears to be a tranny.

It appears as if the cop might have waited too long; the kid didn’t have to be slashed before he or she fired.

It’s a good idea to read the article before making an ass of yourself trying to be ‘clever’.

Those tired “Yogi” comments stopped being clever many moons ago.

Some schizophrenics appear to be resistant to treatment.

And even treatment provides limited results in those who respond to it.

Another beautiful White person. This time a preschooler.

Justice was righteously served - and the family will not have to suffer through a protracted court case - where the mental capacity of the perp would be used to get a lesser sentence.

Thank God this precious child was saved:

And this beast utterly destroyed:

The parents......

...that raised that piece of work.
