So frightening! Hope the victim will recover. Following.

I am glad she was able to get to the fire station to get help. Prayers for her survival and a speedy recovery.

Unfortunately, where they don't know who the suspect is, we don't know if this was a random act or personal. Makes it that much harder to find whoever did this.

Bump!
