The courage of dying mother Ashlee Good, who faced a knife-wielding killer in a busy shopping centre, has been praised along with the officer who shot him dead.
In the midst of a Sydney mall stabbing rampage , witnesses say a fatally wounded mother handed over her injured nine-month-old baby to a stranger to save the infant's life. Stories of courage are still emerging from Saturday's attack, in which a 40-year-old knifeman with mental illness roamed the packed shopping centre, killing six people and seriously wounding a dozen others.
"I can tell you that it was a mother, a mother in the prime of her life, a new mother with a nine-month-old baby," Jayes said. "I can't imagine her needing to hand over the most precious thing in her life. "Her baby went to surgery and her mum didn't make it. So that's really hard news to take. And I am bringing you that not knowing about the other five victims. But there's one victim I do know about.
