Boyfriend Jon Stone, 32, said: “I thought she was going to die. It should be treated as attempted murder. All I could think of was our baby daughter being left without her mum.”
He said the thug who stabbed her was a girl — aged around 18 and wearing a tracksuit.
She and the others fled in Chatham, Kent. Residents there have been plagued by hooligans making a racket outside homes.
