5 People, Including 3 Infants, Stabbed at NYC Day Care; Butcher Knife, Meat Cleaver Found at Scene
NBC News ^ | Sept 21, 2018 | Katherine Creag, Pei-Sze Cheng and Benjamin Carroll

A 52-year-old day care worker allegedly stabbed five people, including three baby girls no more than a month old, at an overnight facility in Queens early Friday, and cops say they found a butcher knife and meat cleaver at the scene.

A 3-day-old girl and a 1-month-old girl were stabbed in the stomach; a 20-day-old girl had a laceration to her ear, chin and lip. All are in critical but stable condition, authorities said. Two other people, a father of a child at the day care and another woman who worked there, were also stabbed at the Flushing center just before 4 a.m. Friday. The woman was stabbed eight times in the torso.

Police say the 52-year-old woman was found unconscious on the basement floor of the day care center on 161st Street with her left wrist slashed in what police say was a self-inflicted wound. She is in police custody at a hospital; officials said she has regained consciousness, but it's unclear if she's talking. Charges are pending.

Authorities say it appears the stabbing spree started with an attack on the adult female. The 31-year-old father who was injured intervened and was stabbed in the leg; then the attack on the children began. Someone called 911.

It wasn't clear whether the stabbed father's child was one of the infants stabbed. He, along with the worker stabbed in the torso, are hospitalized in critical but stable condition.

Nine babies -- five girls, four boys -- were in the house at the time. Police say some other parents were there as well. It wasn't clear whether the facility was licensed or why it had so many newborns there at the time of the stabbing; state records indicate there was a registered business at the location.

An official briefed on the investigation tells News 4 it was a maternity center. Mothers would go there with their newborns and workers would help take care of the babies. It’s also a place where foreigners could have their babies here and those children would become American citizens.

Separately, NYPD officials said there was paperwork indicating it was a day care, though they are looking more into the exact nature of the center.

No possible motive has been revealed. Police said they received one 311 call there years ago -- a call about children screaming in 2011.

Video from the scene showed a heavy police presence, with dozens of law enforcement vehicles and officers swarming the scene. Later, officers accompanied by cops in white biohazard suits were seen carrying large bags to a specialized crime scene unit truck.

“As is often the case, early in breaking news stories, reports conflict. Heavy can report five were stabbed and their conditions, per the NYPD are critical.

The attack occurred at around 3:30 a.m., reports indicate. The NYPD says the adult female victim was stabbed multiple times in the torso and an adult male victim was stabbed in the leg.

The location, Mei Xin Care Inc, is described as a day care that also provides overnight child care center for people who work night shifts.

All child care centers in New York City are regulated by the New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene, but a Heavy search of licensed NYC centers on the DOHMH database does not include this location address or facility name.

This story will be updated.”

It’s called birthright citizenship and foreigners have been taking advantage of it for a long time.

We need to end it.

There are loads of facilities in the USA that cater to Chinese wanting to deliver a baby for citizenship. Other nationalities do it too (one Russian billionaire berthed his super-yacht for his girlfriend to deliver), but such tourist “baby mills” are a Chinese specialty. They cater to all price ranges, and some can be just a few women sharing a room in someone’s apartment.

You can bet the bank that this was an “American Citizen Factory”, where preggo Chinese right off the boat paid for room and board so they could jettison their load on American soil and then be able to call them American citizens, due to a misinterpretation of Amendment 14. Starting with Flushing, the Chinese have now moved in very significant numbers into virtually every Queens neighborhood, sowing ghetto-ization in their path. Once nice neighborhoods with now significant Chinese populations now sport houses with 20 or more residents, few if any who are legal. Cigarette butts all over the place. Illegal curb cuts taking away parking spaces. Ambulettes and shuttle vans uglifying residential streets and taking up 2 or more parking spaces each. Chinese men walking around outside in their pajamas. Laundry hanging on lines in windows. I didn’t sign up to live in a foreign ghetto, and that’s what follows wherever they move in, in numbers.

It’s unclear what led up to the attack.

Check for a recent conversion to Islam.

Its a Chinese “birthing center.”

These things are a disgusting slap in the face to American immigration law

- Birthing Centers exist in NY and LA where leftist ideology will protect them
- they charge huge sums of money $40-$70K to the prospective parents
- they have a nurse on staff for births, but if there are complications, they send the mother to the local public hospital - all charges paid by taxpayer.
- then the child gets an American passport

And the child is AS American as me..?

That’s an obscenity.

Dem's da rules (or, the interpretation thereof). The only way they'll change is if so many of us demand it that they can't ignore us. Not likely to happen.

What are kids this young doing at a Day Care???????????

Cultural differences; you hear stories of Chinese peasant women who stop work to bear the child and are back working the fields that afternoon. Could be BS, but, who knows?

Does this have anything to do with the shiite “feast day” where they mutilate themselves and children and have a bloody parade?

Our diversity is killing us.
