Filis Elizondo Orellana was brutally attacked in front of her two young children, with her tongue cut off and one of her eyes gouged out
A teenage mum is fighting for life after her boyfriend attacked her with an AXE, chopping off her tongue and gouging out her eye in front of their two children.
Evangelino Olivas Colon, 32, is said to have flown into a rage when his 17-year-old girlfriend Filis Elizondo Orellana said she wanted to take their six-month-old baby and three-year-old daughter over to her mum’s house.
Picking up the axe, he slammed it over her head before pummelling her in the face as she laid in a crumpled heap on the floor.
He then took a knife and sliced off her tongue before gouging out one of her eyeballs in front of their terrified children.
Police were called to the scene in the town of Baia Mare, Romania, after locals heard screaming.
Neighbour Alina Medrea, 59, said: "I heard this screaming coming from her and then when that stopped I could still hear the kids, and when I ran out to see what was happening I saw him running off with an axe.
"When I went inside it was like something out of a horror film.
"The girl was lying on the floor unconscious in a pool of blood, one of her eyes was missing and the children despite their young age were terrified and crying. It was just horrific."
The young woman was rushed to intensive care where she is now fighting for her life.
Dr Dacian Juga from the Maramures County Medical Service for Emergencies said: "When we found her she was in a coma.
"She has now come out of that but is in grave condition with severe wounds to her skull and her face."
Police later arrested her boyfriend, who faces 20 years in prison if he is convicted of attempted murder.
A police spokesman said: "This is one of the most horrific acts of domestic violence we have seen. The man is being held in custody until he can be taken to court. We need to see if the young woman survives before deciding what to charge him with."
