Multiple people were slashed with a butcher knife in Brooklyn on Sunday morning, including several children, before the deranged attacker was shot by police, sources said.
The violence erupted around 10:30 am on 84th Street, when the man attacked at least a half a dozen people, including several kids between the ages of 8 and 16, before being stopped by the NYPD, the sources told The Post.
All of the wounded were rushed to Maimonides Medical Center, where at least one youngster is now fighting for their life, the sources said.
The sources said the mother of at least some of the children was at the scene but it was not immediately clear if she was also injured.
Police were expected to hold a press conference at the scene on Sunday afternoon.
