A 27-year-old woman, seven months pregnant, has had an emergency caesarean after suffering a brutal assault at the hands of a 38-year-old intruder in her Brisbane home.
It is alleged the man repeatedly hit the woman with a baseball bat and golf club, at least once across the stomach. The woman was rushed to hospital with a broken leg and arm, and several fractured ribs.
Doctors were required to deliver baby girl, weighing less than one kilogram via emergency caesarean. The 38-year-old offender will face court on charges of attempting to kill an unborn child, along with several other related charges.
