A jealousy-fuelled argument has led to the death of a three-year-old girl and her mother being seriously injured, Limpopo police say.
A 20-year-old woman has been arrested on charges of murder and attempted murder.
Col Malesela Ledwaba said a row erupted between the suspect and the 24-year-old mother of the child in Moremadi Park on Wednesday.
During the fight, the suspect allegedly hit the little girl with a spade, causing a fatal wound to the upper body, before pouring boiling water on her love rival.
The victim sustained severe burn wounds. She was transported to hospital for medical treatment.
