A 28-year-old man has been charged with attempted murder after a nine-year-old girl was stabbed at an address in Christchurch.
Dorset Police received a report on August 20 that the youngster had sustained stab wounds at the property in Glider Close.
A force spokesman said: “The victim remains in hospital receiving treatment to injuries that are not life-threatening. Officers are providing support to her and her family.”
Jordan Wilkes, from Christchurch, has been charged with attempted murder and possession of an offensive weapon in a public place, and is set to appear at Poole Magistrates’ Court later.
