That's a small safety tip that rivals all of the canned goods and toilet paper you hoard in your Cape Cod summer home.

The dispatch operator told the EMS responder she had a 10-year-old who had a knife wound.

It was hard to tell if his response was disbelief or mere frustration.

Sadly, it's probably not the first time a kid called in about being stabbed.

By this time, the polite little girl who was stabbed and trying not to pass out was getting frustrated.

You can hear her in the background desperately pleading for help.

She was probably wondering when the questions would stop and an ambulance would arrive.

The victims were two 10-year-old cousins who managed to escape outside.

They were making their way to a neighbor's house, but all the time struggling just to stay alive.

You get up to see two blood-soaked girls staggering towards your house.

These days, would you even let them in?

I mean, be honest.
