WFCN – Police in Ohio claim that a lady randomly attacked and killed a 3-year-old boy with a knife outside a grocery store.
North Olmsted police report that the toddler, Julian, and his mother, Margot Wood, were stabbed on Monday at approximately 3 p.m. at the Giant Eagle parking lot in North Olmsted, which is approximately 15 miles outside of Cleveland.
Authorities reported that Julian was stabbed in the cheek and back. According to authorities, Wood, 38, lived with injuries that were not life-threatening.

Det. Sgt. Matt Beck of the North Olmsted police department described the incident as a “random act of violence” and stated that Ellis and the victims were strangers.
At a nearby store, Ellis purchased “some sort of kitchen knife,” according to Beck. She then made her way to the Giant Eagle, where she “spotted Mrs. Wood and her son and then proceeded to follow them out to the parking lot.”
