A four-year-old Taiwanese girl was decapitated by a man outside a Taipei subway station on March 28.
The gruesome incident occurred in the Neihu district, where a man approached the child while she was riding a bicycle, grabbed her and beheaded her with a kitchen knife, Taiwan media reported.
The girl’s mother said she was walking just a meter behind her daughter, and thought the man was trying to help her ride up a hill, only to realized he had different intentions. He started slashing her daughter with the knife instead.
Officers are still trying to find out whether the suspect particularly targeted the child and why.
