In her first interview since the attack at Parnell Square last November, the child’s mother said her precious daughter was in the “wrong place at the wrong time”. The girl was born in the Rotunda Hospital and her parents are from South America and Eastern Europe. Three children and a creche worker were injured in the random incident on Parnell Square in Dublin on November 23. “My husband said, ‘don’t go out there.’ I asked him what is it like, and he replied, ‘a warzone'." A 50-year-old man, Riad Bouchaker, appeared in Dublin District Court in November, charged with the attempted murder of three children and the assault of creche worker Ms Flynn during the Parnell Square incident.
