A man remains in custody tonight on suspicion of attempted murder of his mother and two sisters. Emergency services were called to an address on Little Green Lane in Small Heath at around 7:20AM this morning (19/03) to reports of a domestic incident. The mother of the family, believed to be in her 40s, and her two daughters aged 16 and age 10, suffered stab injuries during the incident. All three were immediately taken to hospital. The two girls are in a serious condition, whilst their mother is described as stable. A baby was discovered unharmed inside the address and is currently being cared for by family members. The son, aged 17, was arrested outside the address and a knife was recovered nearby. He remains in police custody on suspicion of attempted murder of his mother and two sisters. Chief Inspector Dean Hatton, of Birmingham Central Police, said: “All three casualties have suffered multiple knife wounds and have been taken to hospital for emergency treatment. The two girls are in a serious condition, whilst their mother is described as stable. This appears to be a contained, domestic incident: the teenager was arrested outside the address and we are not actively seeking anyone else in connection with the incident.”
