A Chattanooga, Tennessee woman has lost her sight after her partner allegedly stabbed her and gouged her eyes out in a horrific attack this past Wednesday.

According to WTVC police arrived at a home to find a woman lying face down. Her eyeballs were next to her in a yard.

The New York Daily News reported the woman – the mother of suspect Michael Roberson's child - was stabbed in the stomach and left breast and also received a cut to her arm.

WTVC reported neighbours saw Roberson allegedly sitting on top of the woman using his hands to attack her face.

Court documents revealed the violent altercation started after a fight between Roberson and the woman over an issue with their child.

Cops say Roberson told them he blacked out and couldn't remember the ordeal, stating he was at a low point in his life.

A broken knife, torn clothing, and keys were also found at the scene, the Daily News reported.

Roberson is behind bars at Hamilton County Jail on attempted first-degree murder and aggravated domestic assault charges.

It's not the first time Roberson had allegedly been violent.

In 2006, the man was charged with assault. The charges were later dismissed after a judge found him not guilty or reason of insanity.
