A grandmother reported that her six-year-old grandson, Dawson, suffered severe injuries while protecting his three-year-old sister Hazel from their mother Taylor Gosnell during a stabbing incident. Both children sustained deep lacerations but are in stable condition; however, Dawson may require amputation due to the severity of his wounds. The attack was discovered after Dawson called his grandmother complaining about hunger, leading to a wellness check when he and Hazel were found alone and covered in blood. Gosnell attempted to flee during her mental health evaluation and is now being held without bond ahead of an upcoming court appearance.

Story summary
In South Carolina, Taylor Gosnell, 35, allegedly attacked her two young children with a knife on November 4. The victims were her sons Dawson (6) and daughter Hazel (3). Dawson reportedly suffered the most severe injuries because he stepped in to protect Hazel. His grandmother, Jan Marie Mull, told the US Sun that she was "floored" upon learning of the incident. Both children sustained lacerations so deep they cut to the bone and are currently in stable condition but require extensive medical care; Dawson may need amputation due to his injuries.
The police discovered the children alone and covered in blood after Dawson called his grandmother because he was hungry, which prompted a wellness check by local authorities. Gosnell returned home shortly before the attack according to investigators.
