They watched horrified as paramedics desperately tried to resuscitate 'a tiny bundle' sometime after 10pm. One said officers had carried a 'limp little body' out of the house. 'It was obviously a child,' she added.  All three children were taken to hospital but the boy, five, and girl, four, died shortly after they were admitted. Police say their baby sister is still in a serious condition. It is understood she has now been transferred from the local hospital to another NHS trust in London. <img src="http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2008/05/31/article-1023291-016FC6C100000578-544_468x467.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Cordoned off: The house in Surrey was being guarded by police today as another child, a six-month-old baby girl, battled for life in hospitalJim Duffy, who lives a few doors down from the house, told reporters: 'My daughter saw one of the children being stretchered out of the house. She was covered in blood. 'I went outside and saw the other children being carried out; they looked to be about four years old. It was a horrible scene.'He added: "We saw them bringing a child out and then about half an hour later they came out with another child. Then a woman who had blood on her dress, on her back.'She was dressed in Indian style clothes and they took her into an ambulance not a police car. 'About half an hour later a chap came out. He was quite calm and the police were being quite calm with him. 'They didn't handcuff him at first and he sat in the front of the police van making a telephone call. 'They later put him in the cage at the back of the van and he seemed to have some sort of argument with the police but he didn't look like he was resisting arrest.' Mr Duffy also saw police bringing a small evidence bag out of the house.'If it contained a weapon then it must have been very small, it was so small we couldn't see what it was,' he said. He described Carshalton village as a pleasant "oasis" between the more built up areas of Croydon and Sutton. 'It's a popular area and house prices are reasonable. You don't get fights or brawls and even the kids are well behaved so this is very unusual.'The family home on Park Lane was cordoned off today and being guarded by police.Sen Gupta, who lives opposite the couple, said they were from the Tamil area of Sri Lanka. 'They moved in less than a year ago. She was still pregnant. Obviously she has had the baby now,' he said.'When it happened last night a group of people, also Sri Lankan, came to the house very soon after the police arrived. 'They were pacing up and down outside for a while. They said they had lived in the house with the couple but moved out because of problems. I don't know what kind. 'The police came out and spoke to them. They must have been telling them the children had died because they started screaming and crying.'Neighbour Pam Thomas added: 'When we heard the fire engines last night I looked out and I saw a paramedic carrying the baby scooped up in his arms. 'Next they came out with the children. There were so many ambulances, five or six, that I was expecting them to bring out more people. 'But when the man and the woman just walked out, quite normally, I couldn't believe it.'Scotland Yard said officers were called to the house at 10.30pm to find the three wounded children. 'Police and London Ambulance attended, and found three children suffering serious injuries, believed to be stab wounds,' a spokesman said. 'We believe we know the identity of the deceased, however we await formal identification and confirmation that all family members have been informed.' They are so far refusing to officially confirm the relationship between the children and the man and woman in custody.The pair, aged 39 and 35, were being held at separate police stations in south London today and will be questioned later.Post mortems were being arranged and murder squad detectives and the Child Abuse Investigation Command are investigating.<a href="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1023291/Two-children-stabbed-death-6-month-old-fights-life.html" target="_blank">dailymail</a></blockquote>
