A 57-year-old woman who was the victim of a sexual assault bit off her rapist’s tongue and handed it to police as evidence.
The woman was walking her dog at 4 am on Sunday 19 February in Avignon, France, when a man started following her.
He reportedly approached her and attempted to forcefully hug and kiss her while also slipping his hands down her trousers.
After a struggle, the woman bit off the aggressor’s tongue and returned home.

She then, accompanied by her son, brought the piece of flesh to the local police station.
Officers went to the scene and arrested the man, who is originally from Tunisia and is living in France illegally.
The man, who faces immediate trial and is obliged to leave France, reportedly told officials that the woman was the one who had attacked him, according to France Bleu.

The incident is similar to a recent Spanish case that saw a woman cut off the penis of her would-be rapist.
The pair, both originally from Bangladesh, worked together in a bar in Sant Andreu de la Barca near Barcelona.
The man allegedly attempted to rape the woman, who then cut off his penis in retaliation.
The unnamed woman contacted police to admit to her assault and the man was rushed to the hospital for an emergency operation so medics could attempt to reattach his penis.
Both were arrested by Spanish police. The man was charged with attempted rape while the woman was charged with assault and amputation.
