A shocking incident occurred in Daejeon, South Korea, where a female elementary school teacher in her 40s has been arrested for allegedly murdering an 8-year-old student.
According to reports, the victim was found with stab wounds on her shoulders and hands.
The suspect, who was also found at the scene with severe injuries, was in critical condition at the time of discovery. The victim had remained at school due to an after-school childcare program.
When the child’s parents could not contact her, they reported her missing to the police.
