Shocking details have emerged from the 10-year-old girl who was allegedly stabbed to death by her sister.
About 3:45 pm on Monday, emergency services responded to reports of a stabbing at a home on Thurston Street, Boolaroo, approximately 12 miles southwest of Newcastle.
Paramedics treated a 10-year-old girl for multiple stab wounds to her upper body. However, she died at the scene.
Officers arrested her 17-year-old older sister at the home before she was taken to Belmont Police Station.
A crime scene was established and local detectives and the Homicide Squad commenced an investigation under Strike Force Upstream.
The teenage girl has since been charged with murder (domestic violence) and refused bail to appear at a children’s court on Tuesday.
Superintendent Tracy Chapman said there are no records of police being involved with this family previously for “matters such as this.”
Neighbor Cindy Holloway described the incident as “awful” and explained a grandmother, mother and two daughters have lived in the home for three years.
