Amy Watts said the blade was lodged 1.5 inches into her daughter Kyli's skull.
A 24-year-old woman was hospitalized after a homeless man in North Hollywood stabbed her with garden shears, lodging them 1.5 inches into her skull.
Kyli suffered a traumatic brain injury as a result of the attack. Random attacks like this, at the hands of people experiencing homelessness, are becoming frequent throughout Southern California. Watt's said her daughter's hope is more will be done for those suffering from mental illness and harbored no hatred to the man who attacked her.
Even though Watts said Kyli just moved to L.A. a few weeks before the attack and will be going to the East Coast so her mom can help with her recovery, the 24-year-old is not writing L.A. off.
