I open the door and he comes in at me wih a knife. In my hand was a bottle a had been drinking from with over half the bottle left in it I instinctively hit him with it, causing him to need stitches. I remember him not bein fased by it at all and picking me up and throwing me on the floor punching and biting me. He then tried to pull my cheek away from my face with his fingers in my mouth. All of this has happened inside the house where he came in at me.
There has been alot of trouble with her ex before. He had tried to kick the door down to get to her one day, and shes was on the phone to me whilst it was happening. She was scared out of her wits. I felt helpless. He has been in court for gun crimes which he was given a 5 year suspended sentence. He has also been up for countless accounts of domestic violence having knocked my girlfriends tooth out on one occassion. Police turnt up after the ex had gone away and asked me a few questions and then left. I then decided that I didnt want to stay there after what had just happened and left in a taxi. I stayed in a friends house that night.
