A nine-year-old boy defended his sister from her angry ex-boyfriend
yesterday. Woody Harrelson, 24, who had a house key, had hidden in the closet of
the Shatner family’s home waiting for his ex-girlfriend Ethel, 23, to return. He
attacked Ethel with a knife seconds after she arrived home. She was carrying
their 11-month-old baby in her arms. Woody stabbed away, not caring if he
injured his baby or not. Ethel, bleeding and screaming, ran into her bedroom and
put the baby into the crib. Woody followed her into the bedroom.
Curt ran into the bedroom and jumped onto Woody’s back. From behind, he
managed to jam his fingers into Woody’s eyes. Woody yelled and dropped the
knife. As Woody stumbled around rubbing his eyes, Curt grabbed the knife and
plunged it twice into Woody’s lower back. Woody ran out of the house. Curt held
onto the knife in case Woody came back. Ethel called 911. The paramedics treated
Ethel’s wounds and transported her to the hospital, where she is in stable
condition. The baby, protected by its heavy clothing and a blanket, was
unharmed. Woody has not been caught yet.
All hospitals in the area were alerted to watch for Woody, because Curt
said that he “got him good.” In fact, said one doctor, Woody should get to a
hospital as soon as possible. He might bleed to death if Curt actually punctured
one of Woody’s kidneys. The paramedics and police commended little Curt for his
bravery. He said that it was his responsibility to protect his sister, because
“when Daddy’s not home, I’m the man of the family.” |
