Mom Attacked, Leaves 4-Year Old Behind- Say “What!?”

This video is intense. It is security footage of what appears to be in front of a department store where a guy is walking back and forth looking for a victim. A mother and her daughter get out of a vehicle and the man approaches wielding what looks to be a knife and the woman flees leaving behind her 4-year old daughter. With no sound, you can't tell if she just ran or if she ran and told her daughter to run too. Or maybe she was hoping that the attacker would just chase her. Either way, one would think to grab their kid and run, but who knows what you would do unless you were in the situation. How do you think you would react?  The woman was stabbed in the neck but reports is that she is doing just fine and luckily the little girl was untouched.
